It's one thing if you format your Myspace page this way, but why on earth would you format a classified ad this way? I'm glad I'm not looking for this transmission, because I'd have some severe cognitive dissonance about giving this guy money.

If you're a 2na, you'd probably find _more_ cred with the ad. Just think bro, how many years do you have be on the scene to have mad type capitalization like that?

Yeah, those aren't really the same thing. I seriously doubt the person who made that craigslist ad was telling people he recently had the transmission rebuilt vs. lying to informing people that the transmission is in good working order using incorrect terminology.

Drives okay... but you have to keep putting coolant in it... but experts say thats with most off road cars anyways. It has dings and dents on the body. The car does have jumping capabilities and can ride a wheelie on front and back wheels with a skilled driver of course...Do not attempt if you suck @ driving. Reason for selling: it's too drat ballin for us. We want to tone it down a bit and maybe get a Rally Van. I only put PREMIUM 91 gas in it and change the oil every 20 jumps and not a jump more! Pick up this ballin whip for cash money only.. for a steal @ A REDUCED price thats bustin my balls for $250 O.B.O or 250 items off the dolla menu. or trade for something else that runs of equal or better value preferable better.

Not only that, 89k is not super-low miles for a 1990 Miata. You can still find cars that were bought 20 years ago and have only been driven once every few weekends since - I've seen at least a few early NAs with ~30k miles on them.

That said, if the underside is clean, that car would probably go for $3500 here in AZ no problem. It's in nice shape and it hasn't even had enough miles to hit its second timing belt swap. You'd probably have old seals start leaking but other than that, that car has another 100k in it easy.

I want one of those so bad. My wife pretty much doesn't care what I do when it comes to AI, but that might be pushing it too far (wouldn't fit in the pole barn).

Really seems that it might be worth it....especially with a winch and a cab heater. The zombie repellent gear is easy to install later on.

Edit: You _HAVE_ to love a vehicle that includes a manual that tell you things like "So if you've got a 55 gallon drum of used motor oil, 40 gallons of diesel with water in it, and a few gallons of grain alcohol, refer to the table on page B-27 for mixing and fuel quality switch setting instructions."
