Pinto Cruising Wagon! Very groovy. I like his plate as well. Shame it is an automatic.

Took the GTI in for an oil change at my indy and he has an '90 Miata for sale.
Only 125K kms for $7K.

Very fair price!  I personally prefer the 94- cars, but the differences are slight and the 90-93s are still great.

This one came with Acadian bling from the factory

It's been listed for a looooong while! I had sent the link to barnfinds.com last year but they did not pick-up on it.

When did they start calling it Acadie BTW?
When I went to school there it was thriving, then the mines and the mill shut down and it seems to have become disproportionately francais.   I think a lot of english speakers left.

There's one in Calgary, rumour is that $5M CDN is the minimum number to even have a conversation about buying it.  The owner is a friend of one of the Miata club members, he managed to score a ride in it.

Yes, bad grammar.  The friend scored a ride, of course, and thanks for playing...

The vehicle is being sold without a safety, so it is just your type disclaimer

I dunno if an Aveo would make it off the lot without the head cracking.

And of course, you mean the day it was new, right...
