What year model is this MX5/Miata?
Hey guys,
I'm absolutely clueless when it comes to miatas, can anyone tell me the year model of this miata? Is this just a one off or something that can be fabricated (e.g bodykits).

Thanks!

Here's some more pics (#s 15-20):
http://autoshow.autos.msn.com/autosh...oto-number=15#

It's called a 1989 Club Sport. It was shown at the 2009 Chicago Auto Show 20th anniversary of the Miata.

Some will also say it's similar to a Rod Millen Miata, 'though at least some of these don't have these Panasport wheels and do have the pop-ups, side mirros (and a turbo).

NA6CE or NA8C is the chassis code for that. I think the Club Sport had a 1.8L so I assume it was the NA8C.

It also sports some panasports and those lights are Hayashi headlights - very rare.....I was probably one of the few to have that setup in the US and the company is no longer around.
