I've driven Miatas for the last 14 years and just love driving them. That said, I've got it in my head that I want to try a 914. Anybody interested in a swap? Mine is a 1997, black, 170K miles. I've got a LONG list of upgrades and maintenance performed. Flyin' Miata front sway bar, Flyin' Miata frame rail braces, Garage Star fender braces, glass window convertible top, added a NOS OEM CD player, upgraded to Fat Cat shock mounts front and rear, Borla stainless steel cat back exhaust [sounds perfect], reupholstered seats, upgraded both door and headrest speakers, new oil pan seal, have done timing belt, valve cover gasket, KYB-GR2 shocks front, Koni yellows rear, replaced power window bushings with new teflon, new clutch, Hard Dog Hard Bar roll bar...I'm sure there's more. Runs and handles great; I don't race it, ever. I'd only be interested in a 914 of comparable quality and condition. I'm in the greater Los Angeles area. Thanks!

...and no one on here has heard of a 914 being a "chic car?"... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
Hope these are tongue in cheek comments to a new person who may actually think your car is as cool as you do. Reverse snobbery is still...snobbery...I'm no Mazda fan but there is also a reason they were made for more than 6 yrs. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/welcome.png) Thanks for the welcome, Mr. Olympic Blue. There is an Olympic Blue 914 for sale locally that I would LOVE to have. Has the PORSCHE rocker panel stripe and blacked out Fuchs...looks great. And actually...the NA Miata was made from 90-97, the NB from 99-2005, the NC from 2006 to 2014 and the ND is just coming out so...so far, they've made Miatas for 24 years and are still rolling forward. |
