There was a guy on here a few months back that said he bought a show car with 0 miles. Don't remember his name or if it was really true.

About 2 or so years ago there was an untitled, 95' MBM automatic that was being sold by a Mazda dealership on autotrader. It had 150 miles on it and they were asking a ridiculous amount of money for it.

A low mileage FD is a terrible and sad thing. It means nobody has been enjoying it.

i totally agree with this! I could never own a low mileage car for very long. I did about 40k-45k on my black FD the 11 months I had it before I blew it up!

I would normally agree with you but Im glad people are keeping sleepers around. I feel much better thrashing around in my car when I know there are others out there to make sure that the 3rd gen lives on as long as possible.

Your right, and for that matter, any type of sporty car. I wonder how much these owners of low mileage cars kick themselves for not driving them. Or when they do, they're worried so much about the tiniest sand grain kickin up on the car that they don't enjoy driving them.

That was Lehman Mazda formerly Marlin Mazda. It was in their showroom for the longest time. They were asking 40K. IDK what became of it.
