Yep. A completely stock '03.5 with 10,000 miles on it(!). Looks like the Miata's days are numbered, 'cause we need another 4 door, and the FD's got the "weekend car" thing handled.

More pix to come, but it's gonna be like a 9 hour drive home, so it may be a couple days.

Leaves you to wonder how such a sweet car could just have sat around since 2003 an only be used for 10k.

Wow thats like a brand new car, how did you ever find that? Is it lowered, if not they sit low from the factory. Love those wheels, would like a set of those for my car.

They sit on racing beat springs, so I think it's lower than a stock p-fizzle sedan.

Wow, what a drive; the car has 11,000 now!

The car is from Wisconsin and the guy only drove it on the weekends in the summer, and even then he also has an R6 he rides around on. When he moved out to cali, and needed a work truck, so the MSP had to go.

I'm pretty stoked. The car's pretty much new still, and it ran like a champ all the way across california yesterday.

Lucky bastard. MSPs are very hard to find up north, and the ones that do exist go for crazy prices.
Like this: http://www.canadatrader.com/result/d...5&pgno=1&srt=1

113000km is like 75000 miles and at the current value of the canadian dollar, it's still about $14500 USD.

Well the dealership wanted $16,500 for my P5 in February of this year, all the imports are pricey here. Grill looks great JP.

You get what you pay for I guess. I could have bought a shitty Chevy Epica for the same price as my Pro, but I mean, who wants a Chevy Epica?

Thanks for the compliment btw!

Here's a few pics. Pardon the dirty interior...it was a long drive and I'm still to tired to vacuum it out. lol, I DID wash the bugs off after yesterday's mission through 600 miles of orchards, though. It was covered in bugs this morning.
