I'm lazy. What is Shinzen? That's a pretty car.
"New and fresh"
I'm no Miata expert but I think it was a base model with some appearance/option enhancements.

Yeah, Shinsen was basically an option package. From memory, a blue interior, silver(?) paint and specific wheels. It's not exotic mechanically, just pretty.
Not a Shinsen. Not that it matters to most people. It is a splash green miata. The front bumper looks oddly colored but not sure if that is just the quality of the pictures or a replacement.
Still a pretty tasty little car. Thinking about a one-way ticket. AW said she wouldn't mind a Miata. Black interior might be a show-stopper for her.
(looks at the ad) Yeah, no Shinsen. But Splash Green is fairly unusual.
Those black leather seats are rare. Since Miata leather is...not great, I'd be tempted to sell them for profit and replace them with cloth seats of the same vintage.

I had a black interior NB for years. It was okay except on the hottest days. I'd heed Keith's suggestion and find cloth seats though. My second NB had tan leather, so was better still in the heat.

Do it! The other Miata in the classifieds is going home in the same way.

Do it x2. If he takes 4k and the mechanicals are fine, you'd be in it right. There should be no rust, as in zero, if it's from the Atlanta area. I'm curious about the bumper covers color mismatch though.
Splash Green is probably a really tough color to match, and it wouldn't take much of a parking whoopsie to require a repaint of the bumper skin.

So what airline are you flying to get it?

It wasn't me. I didn't even get to show the pix to AW. :-(
