Found a mechanic maintained 92 MX-5 1.8 in BRG with brown interior and top. Pretty much what I was thinking of getting. $4000NZD

I talked myself out of it because it didn’t have A/C. But really I wasn’t ready to buy something yet. I could easily afforded it.

Ended up getting a 1995 Astra Convertible about a month later …

The main place to buy used cars in NZ is an auction site, so “lowest price” doesn’t mean much until it’s actually sold.

Was hoping for something for interesting.

Local to me - lowest stated price - 2004 Nissan Maxima -NZ$1,900
