Jack, I'm on the hunt for a Miata right now, too! I'm looking at the older 1.6 and maybe the 1.8 if I can find one for a screaming deal.

Luke, you'd be happy. One of the local one's I'm interested in is black...

Cool Brant. Do you know how much 1.6s are going for now roughly?

Black cars are nice, and I'll probably get a black one. My only concern is that they are pretty hard to keep clean.

Depending on what you're looking for, they range anywhere from the low $3k (rare to find this cheap) to somewhere around $6k (overpriced, but you can talk them down).

My ideal would be an good condition white w/ hardtop for about $4-5k, but white seems to be tough to find here in Washington.

I'd say that $4-5k is probably a good average price for a 1.6 with 100k or fewer miles.

The black/tan I'm looking at is somewhat high mileage (130k) and he's asking way too much (almost $7k), but I think I can get him down into the $5k range...I hope... :fingers crossed:

I know a friend of the owner and am waiting for an introduction. The car has been perfectly maintained...
