Just sold my 330Ci and now in the market for a Miata. I saw a bunch of Miata ads around metro Washington DC area that I like and I need the Miata experts here to help me figure the fair price for these Miata.

I know #1 is an NA and #2 is an NB but they both look pretty good. I guess I'll go ahead and test drive both and see which one I like more. I am leaning toward NA because it's more competitive in STS and cheaper insurance and tax. Thanks al.

I'd suggest waiting another month until it get's a little colder. Rear wheel drive convertibles tend to be a hard sell once the snow starts flying.
Got plenty of snow in DC last year too. You might want to use Auto Tempest to search CL in a larger area. You have CL's in Richmond, Charlottesville, Va Beach area, and Fredericksburg. Cast your net a bit wider.

Good idea...since I am not in a hurry. I guess I can wait until the snow fall to get a better deal...
Pass on the NA, the NB is a much better deal. For $1550 more you get a 5 year newer car, fewer miles plus some very nice upgrades.
