Hello CR,
This thread will be the storage space for my 03 Club Sport side chick.

(Above photo taken after lots of cleaning and a professional paint correction)
I have another monster thread that has morphed into a total cluster with multiple Miatas and the racing shenanigans here: http://clubroadster.net/vb_forum/89-roadster-projects/33957-dowards-jack-all-master-none-build.html
Long story short: We, 949 Racing, recently stumbled upon a craigslist add for a white 2003 Miata for a "below market price." It was described as, and looked to be a Club Sport in the ad, so we basically stopped what we were doing and drove to San Diego to buy it. Upon arrival we noticed it had a red twin parked on the street. The seller was not ready to let both go, but Emilio came home with the white one and I with first right of refusal on the red one.
Here is a short thread about "Snoopy": https://www.miataturbo.net/build-threads-57/snoopy-91817/
A couple months go by and we get a phone call. Again, we drop what we're doing, head to San Diego and I bring the second one back.
Both cars spent their entire lives parked outside, on the street, under the California sun. They both have bumps and bruises, crackled clearcoat, etc. Neither had much in the way of preventative maintenance or even general care, leaking valve covers, acorns in the engine bays, makeup coating all over the interior included with both.





^License plates in sequence even.
