People have been asking for pictures of the underside of the car.  I got the car up on ramps in the front and shot some pictures. 

You can see there is no suspension, floor, or exhaust damage, and only a little surface rust on the bolts.  Pretty amazing for a 20 year old car.

There is a little oil and dirt, and some surface corrosion on the aluminum parts, but surprisingly pristine.

 

 

Then I got the car up on the back wheels:

The transaxle is obviously leaking a little.  Not enough to drip on my floor after parking the car in the same place for over a year, so it must be a very slow leak.

The car has the CAGS eliminator to disable the 1st-4th gear shifting at slow speeds (GM's idea of fuel savings in the 1990s).

So wait, why am I selling this car again?  I know I am going to regret this someday.

I'll never find a FHC this good and this cheap again, ever...

Keep it! Anyone who buys it here is just going to do wonderfully bad things to it!

That's how clean my 94 Miata is underneath.  Garaging a car really helps.

The car is sold to a guy who has had multiple C5s in the past.

I feel like he will be a great owner who can fix its issues and keep it going strong.

Thanks everyone for the interest.
