whats the difference between an SE, a limited edition, and i guess the base model, and are there just SE w/o the limited, or what like how many variations are there and what do they all have the the others dont?

To my knowledge, all 'verts were SE limited editions.. some may have lost the stickers...

They all had the same options from the factory.

There are some small differences between model years (lights on the rear view mirror, etc..).

According to research, very few had AC from the factory. But, we've had so many people say they have AC that I am starting to think our data source was incorrect on that topic. OR.. most dealerships installed it as an option.

Mine has AC and leather seats too that look very much like factory but I could be mistaken.

kc240guy: take some pictures of your interior and I'll take some of mine. I bet they are the same. For some reason I didn't think leather was an option from the factory but after seeing so many cloths seats in such sad shape I'm glad mine has leather.

And yes, I think all are SE - Limited Edition So officially it's 240SX SE LE

Leather seats in vert are bad idea in TX. I'm glad mine doesn't have them.

Mine also have AC.

Don't get me wrong, leather seats in NC can get pretty hot - it was 90 degrees yesterday. You can actually smell bacon cooking when I get in with shorts on but I've learned to put the top up when I park and it keeps them fairly cool. That or a towel seems to work...

yeah my seats get hot. I don't have any direct pics of the interior, but here is an ok pic. I don't own a camera, so I can't take pics unless I borrow one. http://download.yousendit.com/1CCEB0132290258C

I have interior light and map lights under rear view mirror. I love them. But you better be VERY carefull when you install one. Plastic modings on A-pillars and headliner are brittle, so you might break them when you try to remove to run wires. I thought all the verts came with map lights though. Lights under the mirror have switches, but interior(square) light turns on only when the door's open.

I'm not 100% sure on this but I think AC wasn't installed until they arrived at dealerships. I don't remember the reason why and I don't know if it they did it for all verts on the lots or just offered it as an option.

My friend from Oregon lived here in TX for a couple of years and she bought the in OR and had 1st gen Miata without AC. She said most Miatas sold in Oregon didn't have ACs. I'm talkng about mid 90's.

Ah ha, the two 94's we had in the shop must have removed their stickers. One was green so it was repainted.

'Limited Edition' stickers on the sides are not so durable, so either they have been removed or worn out really bad.

Sure, I think so too. Mine was in terrible shape, so I made my own with sticker sheet from sign store. It's an exact replica of OEM sticker.
