Spotted on Rosemont Rd. Looks like the real deal. $4000. I know some guys were looking for one for a team challenge ringer.

haha. maybe if you know that "cone runner" guy at VMSC, you can let him know. he said yesterday he was thinking about buying some other newer miata. of course, i don't really know the differences between them, except for R means fast right? hehe.

Glenn has the same model, a '94.

Of course it's fast. We all know that anything with an "R" on it is fast. Right?!?

ah. how do you determine if a miata is an R. what upgrades make it better? (obviously, besides you driving it )

1994-1997 R Package (approx. 1200 produced)

Spoiler package (front,rear,rear valence)
Stiffer rear springs
Larger rear bar
Bilstein shocks (if you look underneath and see yellow bilsteins, it's a real R)
Manual everything (no power options-lightweight)

An R won won CS Nationals back in the day (94-98) before the new (M2) miata came out.

FYI: only 47 R's made in 1997!

what's really impressive is they actually gave it manual options. they actually wanted the car to be fast, as opposed to a 2000 civic si. power everything, even a sunroof
