    DemonIAm's 1993 MX-5 Thread

    Crystal White
    Tan interior
    Hideous woodgrain trim
    167,000 miles
    All power options
    Cruise control
    Garage kept since 1996

    Even came with a boot cover, and a car cover

    bought from someone who is moving to Hawaii TOMORROW. Had I not showed up by 4, he was going to sell the car to a local dealer. Needless to say, I stole it from him..

    First Pics:

    My TO DO LIST (non-mod):


    Suspension is SHOT
    Headlights only go down when they feel like it.
    Replace rear plastic window, or whole top.
    Replace stock panasonic cd/tape player
    Speakers buzz something fierce (in the doors)


    Tires and wheels (still good for a while)
    Power Antenna does not retract. is stuck half-up
    Rumble/shimmy between 70-80mph. prolly the wheel balance
    Power Clean
    Brake Pads + Rotors
    touch-up some flaky paint spots 3-24-08
    Cold idle is a little high3-26-08
    Hot idle is a little low (about 330ish) 3-26-08
    Replace Hideous Woodgrain--3-26-08
    Replace Fuel Filter3-27-08

    ... will add/strike stuff as needed...

    Thanks for the compliments folks

    yeah, it is kinda blah. Want to find something nice and heavy, but not overdone.

    I wonder if that wood grain can pull off, I so, I could just sand and paint the trim pieces satin black.. hrmmm

    Mine came with this one:


    looks awesome in the car even if mine doesn't have all the wood-trim stuff (that you like so much) yours has got lol. Excellent weight, feels right in the hand, and looks sharp

    OK, so old white paint is hard as fuck to clean. She's going to need a compounding, polishing, and waxing.. oh joy!


    EDIT 3-24:



    Notice how filthy the lower panels are, where the rock guard is installed?
