This 1997 Mazda MX-5 Miata is one of 3,000 M-Edition examples produced for the model year, all of which were finished in Marina Green over tan leather upholstery. It shows 38k miles following registration history in Colorado, Wyoming, and Pennsylvania. Work in December 2023 included replacing the timing belt, water pump, radiator, battery, and brake rotors and pads. It is powered by a 1.8-liter DOHC inline-four linked with a five-speed manual transmission and a Torsen limited-slip differential. Equipment includes polished 15″ six-spoke wheels, a wooden Nardi shift knob, a CD stereo, air conditioning, and cruise control. This NA Miata is now offered by the selling dealer at no reserve with a clean Pennsylvania title.

The car is finished in Marina Green and features pop-up headlights, chrome door handles, painted mirror caps, a convertible top boot, a power antenna, M-Edition badges, and a single exhaust outlet. The Carfax report lists damage in a June 2012 entry. An NB-style soft top has been fitted, and the window defroster is disconnected. Photos detailing finish imperfections are included in the gallery.

The polished 15″ six-spoke wheels are mounted with Toyo Extensa HP tires. The car is equipped with an independent double wishbone suspension and front and rear stabilizer bars. The brake rotors and pads were replaced in December 2023, per the selling dealer.

The cabin features bucket seats upholstered in tan leather along with color-coordinated door panels as well as a black upper dashboard and center console. Interior amenities include a wood Nardi shift knob, a CD stereo, headrest speakers, air conditioning, cruise control, and power windows.

The four-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a 140-mph speedometer, an 8k-rpm tachometer, and gauges for oil pressure, coolant temperature, and fuel level. The six-digit odometer shows 38k miles.

The 1.8-liter DOHC inline-four was factory rated at 133 horsepower and 114 lb-ft of torque. The selling dealer indicates that work in December 2023 included fluids exchanges and replacing seals as well as the timing belt, water pump, radiator, battery, and air filter.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual transmission and a Torsen limited-slip differential.

The Carfax report shows the aforementioned damage.
