 This is a 1992 Mazda Miata that is "Black and Tan". Some call it a special edition, some call it a limited edition, others argue that it is neither. At any rate, it came with special edition features like BBS wheels, Nardi wooden gear shift knob and hand brake lever, the C package options, etc. This one has the optional removable hardtop (with defroster) as well.

I have conflicted feelings about selling my "baby". It has been a garage queen all of its life and has no dents or dings. The paint is bright and shiny (and original). There are a couple of blemishes in the finish, but nothing major and they can't really be seen in pictures, but, it is NOT a new car, it is 21 years old and has been driven 18000 miles. It was a southern California car most of its life but has been in Mississippi for the past 3+ years. It has never seen snow, ice and rarely rain.

No performance modifications have been made and it is all original with the exception of the radio (Sony Explod). The interior is near perfect with only very slight wear on the drivers seat (not ripped or torn, just a little discoloration where you slide into the seat). I have the original radio (same radio but not the original one from the car), original floor mats (I put aftermarket floor mats in the car to protect the original ones), original gearshift knob (I removed it because it sat to high for me) and the original tonneau cover.

I am the second owner. The original owner sprayed some kind of stuff on the dash to keep the aftermarket dash cover from sliding around. I have not fixed this and am not sure what would be the easiest way to fix it. The original owner also installed an alarm system with electric locks and a remote key fob and an amp for the stereo is mounted in the trunk. I installed a battery cut off switch on the battery to avoid it losing power while parked in the garage.

The car has air conditioning, power windows, brakes, antennae and locks, cruise control, 5 speed manual transmission, leather seats and the removable hardtop (which I have never taken off). The car is in excellent condition inside and outside as well as mechanically. It does not leak anywhere or have any weird noises, etc. It has relatively new Michelin tires with about 3500 miles on them. That's about all I can think to put in the description, but feel free to email me with questions.

Although I am not really trying too hard to sell it, it is for sale locally and I will cancel the auction if need be because of local sale or other reason. I set the reserve at the price I would be willing to pay for the vehicle if I was in the market for one. I consider it reasonable, others may not. Please don't ask what it is, I am just going to let the auction take its course. As I said before, I have mixed feelings about selling the car. If it doesn't sell, I have no problem keeping it. I absolutely love driving it.

I do require a non-refundable $500 deposit through PayPal within 48 hours of auction end with payment in full (cash or certified funds must be cleared before car will be released) within 5 days from the end of auction. Unless sold locally, I will not remove it from ebay and sell it to anyone so, please, do not ask (I feel that would be cheating ebay and I won't do it). This car is being offered for sale "as is, where is" with no warranty whatsoever. I have never tried to ship a car before, but will work with you if you arrange everything...but only after payment in full has been made.

I am going to try and post a couple of pictures, but email me if you want to see other pictures or pictures of something specific (within reason). I can take pictures and email them to you. Well, that's all I can think of for now, thanks for looking.

 I have taken more pictures but am having trouble uploading them. If you want more pictures, please email me. I looked more closely at the odometer today and the actual mileage is 18,793 rather than 18,200. More pictures will be added when ebay allows it.
