      If it's an auction I'm assuming you didn't get to test drive or mess with the buttons inside, only pay what you know you can make back on parts if it turns out having issues.

        Yea, not paying near that much, it's held together with zip ties and it supposedly runs but it might be junk. The fenders appear to have been rolled with a channel lock pliers to avoid rub after sawzalling the springs... I think max I would pay is 700.

          Assuming its a running turbo m50 car with a manual and proper tuning platform (TRM chip/aftermarket ECU)  Id feel really good getting it for anything less than $4000

              Got it for 450, I hope it at least runs. I got hit in the maxima on my way home from work last night and it is done for. A guy turned left in front of me and I was going about 45. Everyone was OK so no big deal.

                    I was gonna say, $4k is crackhead price for that car. Glad you got it for under $1000, I wouldn't have paid more than that for the car.

                      It made it to 252k, my wife and I drove it away from our wedding in 09, and brought both of our kids home from the hospital in it. Kind of a sad moment for a sap like me. Hope I don't have any trouble with the other guys insurance, it was clearly his fault and a cop saw it happen. His insurance company should be glad he hit a 1000 dollar car lol.

                        In unrelated news, the Miata is very close to being done bebd8621b13c61d79e330303904e3806.jpg

                        Just need to set ride height, get some exhaust stuff buttoned up, get an alignment, get it out of my life, etc

                              Unlike e30s, you can fit a 9" wide wheel with ease and you have a nice selection of wheels that will actually fit. The storms are lightweight and relatively inexpensive. Very popular with miatas, as well as 6ul and Jongbloed or whatever they are called. She had these powder coated white because she is insane

                                Before she goes to get an alignment I'd probably pull at least the front lip off if not the whole front bumper.  Unless the shop has an in ground rack I don't see that going well.

                                  they do have an in ground rack, shes had it aligned there before a couple times
