I live in nj with a miata and so far it hasnt snowed yet. would buying a hatchback as winter beater be a waste of money?
>>14119221
yes
if you cant drive a miata in winter you're a dumbass anyway
>owning more than one car
not very takumi bro
Oh hey I also drive a Miata in NJ. Nigger buy fucking winter tires and it's perfectly DDable, yes it's a waste.

>>14119221

buy a $1000 corolla/prizm in the nicest shape possible from a little old lady

>hurr durr ur stupid
>I think women take care of their cars
You can't have both of these in the same post
>>14119262
>rust
nope
>>14119268
>driving a 1990s japanese car in a place they throw down a million pounds of salt as soon as it hits below freezing
yeah you're asking for it
>>14119269
you too
explains why every miata i've seen for sale in the northeast has the rockers rotted to shit and the floors/trunk sheetmetal rusty and well on their way
What part of NJ brah? Are you the dude I beat on River Rd a few months back?

>muh anecdotal evidence
Also I'm not buying a third god damn car just for winter
>>14119300
literally never seen a rusty car
stay
mad
>>14119312
>never seen a miata
i would've never seen a rusty miata either if i never saw 10-15 of them when i was looking for one.
just type in miata rust or spend 5 minutes on craigslist you retard
>>14119310
then let it rust or use your second car that isn't a miata
duh
>>14119262
Yeah this is what im worried about. If rust wasnt an issue id just slap soke winter tires on it, not to mention the insane amounts of salt that they use when it does snow
>>14119306
Right by philly on the river, not camden but close [spoiler] who would even live there anyway [/spoiler]
>>14119326
My second car costs 5x as much and is also a sports car.
>>14119312
A large amount of miatas in my area on craigslist are rusted in one way or another, mosty on the rockers. Its hard to find one that isnt
What's up with all these miatas in nj?
Is the haggard garage disease taking effect?
>>14119221
Jersey here, its going to be a waste of money but you're still going to be ruining your car with salt.
NJ salts the roads because of sub 10% chances of snow in the winter here.
Also we usually don't even get snow until late january.
and when we do you can drive in it fine if you're competent.
Isn't there some thick oily shit people spray their undercarriages with that's salt proof? Just do that and maybe plastidip your rockers?

So use the fuckin Memeata
