The factory put in gel. I'm putting in gel. Don't want to worry about leakage and gas.

But I'm cheap so I'd probably get the wet cell.

It's not even my own traction that I worry about, it's other people running into me!

But I've always said, a Subaru is the perfect complement to a Miata. My Forester is getting around very nicely.
Should I start her up and let the engine run for a while? Now she's barricaded in by the snow from the plow.

The thing has about 2" of clearance though, and nice wall of ice around it. She's stranded!
I may drive the Forester over the snow bank to break it down a bit, get her out of there. No more parking on the street when I know it's going to snow!

can i do any better? price is $21353 before taxes, tags, etc. it is midnight blue/tan leather. no chrome gas cover
thanks for any advice.
Mazda probably gave the dealer a $2000 cash incentive to help move it off the lot. If you really want to be mean, you may be able to get them to knock off another $1,000 or so for a total of about $3000-$3500 under invoice.
At least, that's a deal I had on a leftover 2001 this summer. I didn't bite though, I went with a 2002 Crystal Blue LS. A car like a Miata should be just the way you want it.
Thanks is advance.
thanks!
Thanks

Where are you located?
I saw a new 2002 LS for w/o ABS or 6sp, reduced to $21K, the sticker said $25,550 so $21K (before taxes, etc) which I thought was good. So I think your pricing was even better.
I'm still thinking about it? Curious about what you did.
I'm also looking at 2000 SEs, around $17-18 here in California.

Thanks for your help. I live in Illinois, and I couldn't pass up a 60 degree day in January earlier this week for a ride with the top down. As I was putting the car cover back on, I noticed the missing cap. Must have lost it on a pothole somewhere.

A lot depends on your driving speed, quality of gasoline (I always use Chevron 87), terrain and state of tune.
To test your rear LSD, jack her up at the rear diffy, then rotate one wheel manually. The other should turn in the same direction, with only a very slight delay. Works with the viscous LSD on the gen I models, any how.
Or call the 800 # with the VIN, which is easier.

could be mistaken but that's what I'm thinking right now...

For mine (viscous), it did work.
