after talking to him i got this info:

-clutch at 80k
-brakes are ok will need to be changed probably by spring
-i saw many pics and the car is mint with no rust on the body and barely any under the car. looked to be light surface rust here and there.
-top is newer and in great shape, no leaks
-leather is good as is the rest of the interior. no rips, tears, etc...
-car is all stock besides the painted wheels and stereo system

he is asking $3700 got him done to $3000 so far, gonna look at the car tomorrow. what do you guys think is a good price to buy this at?

RedTurboMiata

i think at 3000 your doing good, look for the rocker rust thats a high dollar fix but other than that its all relatively cheap to maintain. good luck

thanks man!

That is a good deal for 3k. Check for rust under the chassis at the drain holes,rust is not fun. I have the same car and the color is definitely nice.

NickPic83

thanks. i ended up getting a sweet 94!

That's cool. At least it's a 94+...better engine, brakes, and bracing than the earlier models.
