1993 V8 miata
 

Hello all, not sure if this forum is active or not anymore but I have a v8 (5.0HO from a fox body) miata that I’m entertaining the idea of selling. Looking for some price points / comparables as I am located in Atlantic Canada (there’s not many v8 mistas here lol). T-5 rear end fox body trans. Conversion kit was bought from monster miata.

body is essentially stock i.e no fender rolling or anything of that sort. Provided some pictures below. Not in any rush to sell of ever certain if I want to. Just a feeler ad for the interest in these cars. I thought about positing it locally for 20,000CAD but seems high.

appreciate any feedback.

1993 V8 Miata
 

Is the engine completely stock or did it have any performance upgrades done?
Looks like there's an AC compressor on the engine but there are no hoses connecting it to anything. Is there the factory Miata AC system still in the dash waiting to be connected to the compressor so that the car could have working AC? I'm in Texas & having AC would be an important consideration for me.
What's the closest international airport to you if I wanted to fly in & see the car?
Do all the gauges work?
Is there anything on the car that doesn't work?
Do you consider the car reliable enough to make the drive from your town to Texas? Or should it be shipped?
Has the car ever been registered in the USA or has it always been a Canadian car? There's a slight complication with importing it at the US border if it was manufactured for Canada & has never been registered in the US.
20,000CAD seems like a reasonable asking price if it has no significant problems needing fixing. I'm interested.

- engine was refreshed when it was out in but stock. Works good no issues makes about 250hp
- there is an ac compressor and I have some components, for where I live it’s never been an interest I had been considering taking it off and installing a pulley or a different style belt but never got around to it. As it sits compressor is in not no hoses attached so no AC.
-hour away from the international air port
- all the gauges work the rpm gauge is bouncy, never got around to fixing it as it doesn’t bother me. Temp gauge reads hot because it’s a miata gauge vs ford motor, never has impacted how the car runs. Everything else works.
- the car works great. Never taken it on a substantial trip. 1-2 hours of driving through some fun local roads. Don’t think I’d want to drive it from Atlantic Canada to Texas that’d be a tour. Never been registered in the USA.
