Hi All,
After 11 years of ownership, it's time to let this great car go. I purchased this from the Mazda dealer in Mill Valley, CA in 2007, it was a lease return at the time. Over my 11 years of ownership I have had the best time with this miata. I've owned a NA and a NC, but I will have to say, a turbo NB is the best iteration of this platform.
About the car:
2004 - #3536 made
Mileage ~93,000 - I'm still driving it daily, it's at around 92,200 right now -
6 Spd transmission
Robins Vinyl Top new in 2013
Cloth interior
Bose sound (not sure this is a selling point....)
stock floor mats
it's a miata.....
Upgrades:
Flyin Miata catback exhaust system (stock is included with the sale)
15" 949 racing wheels (stock 17"s included however all have curb damage (see photos))
Aluminum shift knob (stock included)
Panasonic Daylight running lights
Mercedes W124 horns (to be heard - I might have the stock wimpy horn laying around)
Curtis trailer hitch - holds my bike rack
Garagestar door bushings
Maintenance
New 12V battery in 2017
Timing Belt service at Rotorsport in Santa Clara, CA in 2016 @75K miles
New spark plugs/wires and 1 new coil - Rotorsport in 2016
I do my own oil changes with Mobil synthetic.
Otherwise in my 11 years, this car has not needed anything - extremely reliable
Issues:
Front bumper has a number of pant chips from rocks, there's also a crack in the center from someone backing into my car and stress cracks in the paint under each headlight (not sure how that happened)
Rear bumper - stress cracks from some untalented parking from others (I keep the bike rack on full time to hold people off)
Drivers Door lock does not always respond to the remote to lock/unlock - if I lock it I just use the key
Center console lid - latch is broken - lid stays closed
2 of the wheels have discoloring in their finish, looks like something was either sprayed on the wheels or the factory finish just isn't holding up.

I'm going to really miss this car, it's been my trusty ride every year, but with a new family addition, it no longer is practical. Asking $11,500 in San Francisco, CA
NOTE: Bike rack not included in the sale -
