Looking at a 2006 Sport MX-5 with 25k Miles. Is there some way of telling if it has the Sport suspension package without having the sticker?  What would be a good value range?  Pristine condition with known history and maintenance.

Never mind. Figured out that yellow shocks are the tell-tale.

Yeah I think the yellow shocks means bilstein means sport

To the best of my knowledge, those OEM Bilsteins are not easily rebuildableblike aftermarket Bilsteins are :( Nothing in particular is wrong with that fact, but potentially something to factor in.

Note that the factory Sport suspension on those cars is pretty awful. Badly underdamped. Leave room in the budget for a new set of shocks.

matched set of springs and shocks would be what I would go for

Got it, thanks. Keith, would you agree on the springs, as well?
