Looks like a price surge at the end. Up past 20K now.

Yeah it went for $26K. I was considering it, but not at that price.

Toss the chrome rims and get some nice aftermarket 17's and I like this.

I believe that's the logo for Nardi, the steering wheel brand that came with some Miatas of that generation.

Oh yeah...
When I first saw the posting for the auction - I smiled.
That didn't last more than 2 seconds as I knew it would go to serious money very quickly.
I underestimated that though. It is at $ 50k and till more than 5 days to go. I thought mid $30's would do it. Guess I was a little pessimistic. LOL
