Remembering Japanese cars from the past

DOTS: Miata hunting! (part fifteen)

Now this Miata is a bit of everything: it is yellow, white and blue, it is imported brand new and it has quite a lot of rust!

Originally imported in 1990 as a Miata and registered as white. Apparently the owner (or previous owner) resprayed it yellow but did not bother to change the registration. Then the sunroof got replaced by a blue hardtop.

From the backside you can see that it is gathering quite some rust:

Perhaps a small accident at the rear and that’s why there is also a panel missing?

    Quite a rare color for a NA6. The rust at the sill and around the wheelarches is a common Roadster problem but I have never seen even the boottruck rust like this. O.o
    This car really needs to get some love, but knowing that its currently imported it will probably be a project. :)
