Dude works at Audi Warrington? You know him Z? Might get a homie hookup on it. Looks like it was well taken care of. Xenons and LSD too. Leather seats but if you don't want that you could undoubtedly swap for cloth with a local Miata forumbrah #troystyle.

NC Crub in RED with 7300 miles. $21k seems like a lot for this, no? Especially when you can get basically the same thing (with 10x the miles) for under $10k. The club package is just brake pads, bilstein dampers, LSD, and some trim amirite?

Man I also love the interior on these. So simple. Gauges are simple. Radio is simple. No bullshit.

I'd probably rather have the higher mileage one, put a header and exhaust on it, upgrade the dampers and wheels and have fun brapping away.

Only 3 years old, clean Crubs are holding value.

I'd love a Crub.
I'd buy one. It's kind of the GT3 of Miatas I guess, where people specifically seek them out because they all came with an LSD.

I've been quietly searching for Competition Yellow NC2 Miatas over the last couple years, with only 318 made... they're rare birds.

I love that color.

Factory aero kit.

I spy a few things on it:
- It's lowered (hopefully on a proper setup)
- It has a ceramic-coated header
- It has an AEM CAI
- It has Star Specs
