You are clearly a bit crazier/more motivated than me Tongue I just need a plane ticket, but I'm not canceling my plans for tomorrow.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth

you could probably build that car yourself for cheaper than that.

and if you're going to dump a bunch of money into a turbo miata, why not just start out with a 1.8 anyway

damn, that is a really good looking car.

the souped up one is still for sale as far as i know. two people drove serious distances last weekend to see it, but neither went away with it... that makes me wonder.

i've offered twice to go look at it. i don't know anything about Z's but i if you have a laundry list i can try to ask the right questions.

ultimately though, you'd still be putting down a few grand on a sight-unseen modified antique car....so i understand where you're at.

Then find out said people's information and find out why. They might have just not had the sack to actually buy it, or it may have had too much power for them. Not saying to drive down and buy, but you gotta at least try to find out why nobody's buying :-)
