2005 Mazdaspeed Miata — Lava Orange — 1 of 394 — Factory Turbo

If you know what a Mazdaspeed Miata is, you already know these don't sit for sale long — especially not in Lava Orange. This is one of only 394 ever made in this color, worldwide. Build #117 of just 1,428 produced for 2005 before Mazda's plant fire shut the line down. They're not making any more of them. Ever.

This is Mazda's factory turbo experiment — a 6-speed, 178 hp, factory turbocharged 1.8L with a Tochigi-Fuji limited-slip diff and Bilsteins from the factory. GT trim, leather, Bose audio. Add-ons include Enkei 17s on fresh Uniroyal Power Paws, carbon fiber front splitter, boost gauge, and a roll bar. 42,000 miles. Registered with the Mazdaspeed Miata Worldwide Registry (msmregistry.com) — go look it up.

Now the part most sellers won't tell you up front. The title is salvage, branded "flood damage" out of Houston back in 2015 at 8,758 miles. What matters: it's been driven over 33,000 trouble-free miles since, the engine and electrical are squeaky clean, and every local mechanic who's looked at it is mind-blown at how perfectly it runs and shifts. If that brand wasn't on the title, you'd never know. That's the only reason a car this rare is $12,000 instead of $25,000 .

Cash only — that's how these deals get done clean. Located near Hurricane. I'll meet serious buyers. Honest about the small stuff: little scratch on the driver's door, driver's seat seam wear, rear two speakers don't work (fronts and door speakers do). Everything else is dialed. $12,000. If you're serious, reach out — this one's going to move fast.
