This is basically the exact year and color Miata I want and it has low miles and looks to be unmodified. But $5500 does seem like a lot I've seen similar ones go for $3500 in my area.
What should I offer? Don't know too much about Miata prices.
Also I live in Michigan so would it be a retarded idea to try to drive this 4 hours along the highway back home in the winter?

Unmolested Japanese cars cost more
It looks nice but I just wouldn't pay 5.5 grand for a 1995 miata.
Nothing about the car is special, its not an "m edition" or whatever.
You're getting a low power small convertible for 5500 dollars. Im almost certain you could find some other roadster thats better for the money.
I feel like 4000 is about right.
mileage is decently low but for that money it better
-be immaculate underneath. zero rust anywhere
-have great service records extending back a while, preferably the timing belt already done
-run wonderfully
What other roadsters? In the Midwest there's a pretty high rice tax and you have to be careful for rustbuckets. I've been looking for an MR2 as well but they are even harder to find
just get this, I see lots of them in the Midwest
I need a drop top for cruising in the summer
You can get an infinitely better, albeit beat up or high mileage, 350z for that much
First thing that comes to mind is a BMW Z3.
You would actually be able to get one for $5500 if you were patient or willing to drive a bit.
for $1000-$2000 more you can get one with a 2.8 6 cylinder making 192 HP and 207 ft/lbs.
Thats more than a turbo miata ($$$$) will generally make.
For $5500 price point id be shopping a Z3.
Why on earth would you buy that when something like a Pontiac solstice GXP can be had for $5500????
$5500 for a miata really is pushing it, even if the car is unmolested and low miles. They simply just are not a good car for the money at that point.
