Hey guys,
My name is Colin (obviously) and I live in Orlando. I have a 1994 M Edition with about 150 clicks on the clock. I'm mostly a pre 95' Mercedes guy, but I bought the Miata back in October and absolutely love it. I plan on doing a cheap turbo build and some other stuff to it sometime soon (see thread I'm about to post).
Here she blows...

The day I got her (and an E320 wagon).
Here are three prior to it being shipped in from Kansas.

Looks interesting right? Well it's 60% M-Edition and 40% LE. Car had hail damage and my friend that I bought it from swapped out the bad body panels for good/decent ones off of a totaled LE. Interior also got the swap too, and the soft top is only about a year old.
Anyone want to take a guess at what I paid for it?

^Thanks, it's a hodgepodge Miata but I quite enjoy it. The LE the interior came off of had something like 215,000 on it so it's VERY impressive how nice it is! I think it works pretty well without the red dash.
I guess I should have been more specific in that thread, but it's my "fun" car so I'd like to take it to a track/autocross/drag strip and have it be fun and versatile. I've autocrossed before but not in the Miata. I have a full set of poly bushings to install, and am working on getting some Illuminas and FM springs. This will be a priority over the turbo.
Where are you in Orlando?

$500 and I have had absolutely zero problems with it.
Nope regular title, no salvage or anything. I thought it would be a good idea, considering my 300TD has 86hp and doesn't get the best economy for the price of diesel. I love the Miata so far, it's fun when it needs to be and practical all the time.
Thanks
