OK, time to try something different so I'm selling my 1991 Miata with the A package. Base price is $2,200 with various optional equipment available separately.

Details:
1.6L engine with long crank
5 speed
Viscous limited slip diff
power steering
A/C
Approx 132k miles.
5 point harness
Hard Dog Hard Core rollbar
Time trials logbook
One set wheels/tires - your choice from below list.
Racing beat front sway bar
Koni adjustable shocks
Two tone paint job
Car cover
Shop manual


Extras:
Stock alloy wheels with Kumho Ecsta HP4 all season tires - $150
Stock alloy wheels with Kumho V710 tires - about 50% worn - $200
Stock alloy wheels with Dunlop Star Spec Tires - $200
Hardtop with defroster (car doesn't have defrost circuit) - $700
Racing seat - $50 (on a fixed set of rails, I have a stock set of rails available)

The good:
Consistent class winner - Tire class 2010 and 2011, ES for various years.
Ready to go for Time Trials/hill climbs - holds track record at Talladega in SSC
Engine still strong.

The not so good:
Convertible top is nearing end of life - doesn't leak but is showing wear.
Paint rubbing off of front bumper
Due for timing belt change
Radio doesn't work in wet weather - common problem in that vintage
A/C is marginal - I never use it so I didn't try to fix it.
Has a whine at 30 MPH+ sounds like a wheel bearing but couldn't find anything.

Extras are available to the car purchaser only. Anything not bought then will be sold later.

Interested in the star spec tires, if you are willing to sell separate. What size are they and how much tread left?

Got it. FYI for you or the buyer, I have a set of Falken Azenis that have some life left in them. 195/60/14. Would be willing trade, as I can't use Azenis at the Motormile, but could use the Star Specs. Just let me know.

Can't believe you're selling it. Dibs on my old trailer if you decide to sell it as well.

Yep - traded the Miata for the Hodges' Solo Vee. Now I have to work on flexibility so I can get in and out easier.

Are the star specs still available, or did they go with the car?
