If someone is looking for an NB in the north east thats a pretty damn good deal, too bad i want an NA :/
I dont know this person or car, just found it browsing through craigslist

Very good deal, however, it could be a scam considering the low mileage and quality of mods...

True, still doesn't hurt to look into it if someone is looking, it just might be a true deal who knows, and the guys said cash only on pickup so its not like you wont see/testdrive the car before you buy it. I would so jump on it but I grew out of the NB and want an NA even though I miss my coldside NB :/

damn CL scam listings lately. I responded to an ad for a racing seat that I knew had to be too good to be true. In the ad, the seller said he won't respond to emails without a phone number , so I gave him my number thinking he'd call back. No response email, and since then, I've been getting retarded "take this survey" call and of course a slough of spam emails.

I found a sparco sprint seat for 100bucks. it has a rip and needs patched but $100 is still damn good. If thats a true deal though for that nb someone get on that shit!

I see 3.5-4k in extras alone, including the hardtop. Either the car itself is trash or it's a big ol' scam.

invert · 12-05-2009, 07:36 PM

Oh well, given the lots of pictures it could be a real deal.

Some persons need to take over some payments I guess.

I'd just be cautious to have a good inspection *cough*thrust bearing*cough*

Yeah that's just on the price cusp of a scam.. maybe those Nigerians are getting wise

. Hope someone actually picks it up!

I'm thinking maybe theres an issue with the motor or something and he's hoping for someone who doesn't know crap will pick it up, and considering the price and the extras shit i would take it even with a bad motor....ahhh so tempting, why don't NA ads come up like this :/

I got a deal like this on my old NB for 4700 the guy wanted 6000 but we talked him down. It was extremely clean and well taken care of as well. Deals like this do exist you just have to hope for the best. Wish i had the money right now tho id pick that up in a heart beat.

if it's real, look for rust, having grown up on L.I. I've seen how quick things rust out

MadVillain · 12-08-2009, 10:29 AM

i got my NB for 4k.completely stock and perfect.

but this deal kinda seems too good to be true.

If its not a scam, rather just an uneducated seller, that is the deal of the century. Sell the top and wheels and the other small stuff and have an NB Miata for practically free!! Someone in the area needs to at least inquire about it..
