That's kinda disappointing.
I sold it for less than Challenge money with the understanding that the new buyer was gonna try and bring it back to the Challenge.
I don't see any changes whatsoever in those pics from when I sold it. It looks like it is completely unchanged, with a price tag that is 10X what I sold it for.
Uggh.

Is this seller the guy who bought it from you?

No way for me to know. He's in the right location.
I can tell you that a few of those pics are mine.

I've been hoping this car would resurface, but not like this.

He says it has a Georgia title--are you sure you don't still own it? Sort of weird if he never transferred it after all these years.

Holy crap! I never thought of that!!
Man I should really sell my challenge car if they are worth "$15.5K".
It is nice to see it out there again though. Makes me smile.

I have been there, my brother...
Since this car's asking price is clearly in violation of SV's original sales agreement, I think determining if the title has not been flipped has become important.
Here it is back when I owned it.

Man, it looked great in solid orange too!

Thanks to your skills with a crappy HF paint gun in my garage!
Are the other Miata parts he is selling the spares lot that might have gone with the car?
