This listing is for a 1991 Mazda Miata. K.I.S.S. with manual top, manual transmission, and manual seats, windows and locks. It appears to be a Package A car, with optional A/C and tonneau cover. According to Miata.net, '91 A Package cars have power steering, and a leather wrapped steering wheel and shifter boot. A well-used Miata could be the perfect fun car for its future owners who want a care-free car to make errands/commuting fun or for a night out with their significant other. The normal wear and tear on the exterior and interior makes parking on the street a worry-free experience, and the simple top and trim prevent vintage electronics from letting you down when looking forward to a night out. Our Miata has been family-owned for the past six years. It was bought in Florida and garage-kept with occasional fair weather use. In that time the radiator, Idle Air Control motor, battery, turn signal relay, four new tires (Falken ZE 912's high-performance all seasons to prevent major flat spotting during storage), instrument panel hood (Mazda OEM), shifter turret rebuild kit from Moss, leather shifter boot, raked shorty radio antenna, and Hella H4 headlamps with 55/60 watt bulbs have been installed on the car. The suspension appears original with an open differential. This leaves a blank slate for the car's future owner to decide the car's focus; casual cruiser or canyon carver? Pros: Florida car has little to no rust, and with less than 117,000 miles, less than 5,000 miles per year since new. The engine appears leak-free and starts reliably. The manual transmission is bolt-action direct after rebuilding the shifter turret. The less-is-more specifications gives a timeless appearance. Great interior, where future owners will spend most of their time. The seat cushions are in great condition with minimal wear. The glass is chip-free. Under the battery is minimal oxidation (see photo 16). The vinyl top is tear-free and keeps most water out. There are no cigarette odors. Tires have plenty of life left in them. The aftermarket radio has extra channels if the future owners would like to add the headrest speakers. While this car does not have that option, with the zippered headrests, future owner could add the speakers should they wish with the current head unit. The factory "R/C car" antenna has been replaced with a more modern shorty, raked antenna that can be unscrewed for storage under a car cover. Less than perfect: Florida car has some sun-faded paint with stone chips and minor scratches, a hazy rear window with two patches that appear to keep water out. If we kept the car longer, we would have liked to have replaced the roof with an "NB" Miata glass window. The A/C system, while complete, does not currently work. The compressor shuts off after a minute or so. The driver's seat has a minor tear on the door-side side bolster and both seats have faded to charcoal instead of black. With the transmission in gear and under way, there's an occasional chirping noise that stops when the clutch is depressed or the car is in neutral. Please ask questions before bidding, I'm happy to send detail photos or describe specifics. Happy Motoring!
