Those are never even for sale around here. I want that so bad for my 13b.

I KNOW, RIGHT! The bad part is that I no longer have a 13b. The worst part is that is just down the way a bit and 13b engines aren't hard to find!

I bought a running one with trashed interior and utah baked paint for 300 bucks a few years ago. (2009?)
Then lost it when my old landlord had it towed without warning, couldn't afford to get it out of impound or go through legal hoops to get it back.
:(

That was shortly before his mysterious disappearance, right?

Excuse me, property management company.
They tagged it saying I needed to move it, I moved it across the parking lot, they towed it anyway.
I was out of town at the time, when I came back the impound fee would have been more than I had invested in the car.
(which had a blown engine at the time)

It doesn't have to pass smog in NC, either.

And in the parts of Ohio that don't subsist on farm subsidies, the cutoff is 25 years if you are buying it, 24 if you own it... so if you lived up here then your Miata would get its final test this year.
