Plz Help me find the previous owner of this Miata
Good day everyone,
I just bought this awesome Miata from a used car lot in Montreal.
Salesman told me that the car comes from the Toronto area and the car came with plenty of goodies that makes it unique.
Only trouble is that there's so many add-on the salesmen couldn't provide the full list (which is OK by me, I paid a good price for the car, goodies came free )
I'd like to be able to trace down everything the previous owner added without dismantling the whole car.
All I know is the previous owner name.
So the big question is : Do you recognize this car ?
so far I've found:
- AEM intake
- Jackson racing header (supposed to be ceramic coated as per their web site)
- Motegi mags 15x6
- Kumho ecsta tires (almost brand new)
- Racetech rollbar
- Tokico HP struts
- pedal covers (great for heel-toe)
- led corner lights and 3rd stop light
- projector light and new bumper from 2001+ Miata (car is a '99)
- side gills
- chrome motorcycle gas door (not the sticker type)
- chrome windshield washer fluid thingies
- headrest speakers
- aftermarket air horn
The main thing that bugs me is that there's a sticker under the gas cap that says 'premium required' while those year (00 and less) should require only regular gas so it got me wondering if the engine internals have been changed or what not.
Another detail is that the seller told me the car never seen a racetrack which I find kinda weird since almost all the parts I thought of adding are already there. Since I bought the car essentially for being my track toy, I find this too weird to be a simple trick of karma.
Besides, the under body of the car seems to have the same kind of damage made if someone would've come too wide at corner exit and put 2 wheels in the grass..
So ? Has anyone seen this car before ? I'd love to have a chat with the gent who got such good taste
Thanks much for reading,
Phil
