Used 2002 Mazda MX-5 Miata 52000 miles - cars & trucks - by owner -... for sale in Seattle, WA

I purchased this car bone stock in July 2020, and since then have made some changes to enhance the driving experience while retaining the original charm, comfort, and reliability. The older couple I purchased this car from kept it in their garage and only used it on sunny summer weekends. I have babied it in the short time I’ve owned it, and I’m sure that it’s seen the most rain it ever has under my ownership. I love this car dearly, but I’ve realized I need a bigger car.

I have over 13k invested in this car with over 6k worth of receipts for all modifications performed in the last 5 months.

~52000 original miles
Clean inside and out
Clean title in hand
Good paint - ‘Crystal blue metallic’
Perfect soft top
Everything functions as it should
Pulls hard, drives straight
Brakes are in good condition and have plenty of life left.
Tires are brand new (1500 miles on them)
Transmission fluid was changed to redline MT-90 at 50500 miles 7/2020
Diff fluid was changed with the Torsen install (redline 75-90) 10/2020
Brake fluid flushed 7/2020
New spark plugs + oil change in June 2020
Bad:
Broken foglight lens on passenger side - the light still functions normally.
Minor blemishes consistent with an 18 year old car
Center console is missing it’s latch. It can still be locked with the key, however.
Things I’ve added since July:

Headers - Racing Beat 4-1. I had these inside+outside ceramic coated a deep bronze to help scavenge heat which definitely helps keep the engine bay cooler.

Mid pipe - Flyin’ Miata mid pipe with cat

Muffler - Roadstersport axleback - sounds good without being obnoxious.

Differential - Torsen 4.3 Limited slip ( I still have the original open diff if you’d like it)

Suspension- Supermiata XIDA race coilovers ($2300)
20 click adjustable with 550/350 springs - ride height is currently set near the top of its range, and can be lowered significantly if you choose.

Wheels - Konig Freeform 15x8

Tires- 205-50-R15 Continental Extreme Contact Sport all season tires (perfect for the pnw - great in the rain and still very sticky in the summer)

Shifter - Miataroadster angled/long short shifter. This shifter is actually longer than stock, but features a slightly shorter shift than stock due to it being longer past the fulcrum point in the transmission turret. It is angled to keep it closer to the steering wheel to minimize time wasted between shifts.

Motor mounts - Good-win racing 70 durometer poly mounts

Differential bushings - prothane poly mounts

Door bushings - Flyin’ Miata carbon fiber bushings

Performance alignment set to Supermiata specs performed by regal auto in Auburn.

Hunter Road-force wheel balance performed by tru-line frame + wheel.

I’ll include the original wheels with tires with the sale. If you want the car without the Konig wheels, I’ll take off $500.

I’m asking $8750 with the Konigs, or $8250 without.
