Do you guys think this car is attractive in this color? http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sfc/cto/948959224.html I like Miatas, but as a man who eats meat, I cannot abide light blue or white. I've done "red" to death, I don't care for a black Miata, and silver is sooooo yesterday. I've looked for the dark blue but no luck, except for one "boy racer" car that was so modded the guy was out of control. He threw the parts catalog at it. I think with the hardtop the price might be okay. Year is okay, avoiding 90-91 oil leaks, etc. Probably the 1.6 engine however, not the 1.8. Miles are okay. The "new paint" is scary, if it were a color change, but if the same color, maybe okay. Did '92 Miatas come in yellow? It's either a cute Lotus look alike or a silly banana, I'm not sure.

But those are the newest gen Miatas. Not sure all what colors were available on the older ones. I'm not sure I've ever seen a yellow one. Black is always low on my list. Its just too difficult to keep up with and doesn't age well. I think white is sometimes OK. I like it on the new Miata, but not the old ones, for instance.

How much, reasonably, should this 1976 Bonneville be worth? I swear I've been seeing it on eBay for several months now. It gets bid up to around $7,000 or so, but never meets reserve, so it always gets re-listed. I always get tempted when I see it bidding around $1000, like it is now, but it's not going to stay there. Now granted, it is a nice car, and should get bonus points for those low miles, if they're legit. But shouldn't $6-7K be more than enough for it?
