New Z3 Owner from Central FL.
I was originally in the Market for a NA Miata but, Every example was either Poorly modified to the point of being worthless or Rusted out rolling nightmares as well as being way too expensive for the conditions I found them in. (In my area, they might be better pickings elsewhere in the country.)
The 1996 Z3 1.9 I ended up buying, popped up on the Facebook marketplace during my searches at around the the price I was looking for. The pictures looked really good, and the interior was nearly flawless as well as all original. With the exception of needing rear brakes, the car is mechanically perfect with only 109k on the clock.
Of course, with a car this age there are things that will need to be attended to....It's all good!

Hi and welcome from near Lincoln UK. Hope to see you around the area when we come back to our place in Kissimmee. That's a good looking car. I had a Eunos (UK import Miata) before buying my Z3. Currently I have a 3.0i Z4.

Tony.

Here are some pics of the interior, (I haven't detailed it yet because it needs to take a trip to the paint shop to get the hood painted.)

This car is a base model as far as I can guess, it's vin check says that the only add ons are leather steering wheel, shifter knob, shift boot, cd changer and power windows.
