    1996 850ci Oxford Green w/Parchment leather 139k $12500

    It's time to let go of my 8er after 11 happy years. It's been fun but I have my eye on a new mistriss. It's in very good condition and is a great drive.

    List of upgrades -
    M-Sport springs
    CSI rear bumper valance
    Front bumper license delete
    Body colored front lower valance
    Strong Strut tower brace
    M-Par staggered wheels
    M e36 steering wheel with paddle shifters
    Euro dark light strips
    HID low beam headlights
    LSD 3.91 diff from M5
    CSI rear sway bar
    (I'm sure there is more)

    Stock parts replaced/rebuilt:
    Brake bomb
    Brake master cylinder
    Radiator
    Coolant overflow tank
    Coolant hoses
    Fuel lines in engine compartment
    Various hydraulic lines
    Heater control valve
    Half-shaft boots
    (more I'm sure)

    The only issues are the headliner sagging. One of the dash vents has always only vented cold air, but I just closed that vent when I ran the heater.

    Contact me by PM on this website, or email - smcMiata AT yahoo.com or call - 425 for fore four 9367

    Just ordered new tires to be installed this week.

    Thanks,
    Sean

    Got it back from the shop. They did a thorough inspection and found no issue with the driveshaft, so that's good news. Just needed two new batteries and an oil service; and she drives great. Next up is new tires for the M Parallel wheels. Looking to get them refinished as well.
    Then to work on the headliner. The price will be higher on Autotrader and Craig's List, etc. (start at $18 - 20k) so the price listed here is for how it sits now without new tires or headliner repair.

    Nice car and GLWS, but are you planning on spending 5-8K on a headliner and tires? I don't follow.
    What "thumbs up" really means

    No, not that much! Just wanted to give this forum first shot with a good price.
