Edit: I'm from Toronto btw

I've seen a few twins running around the city this winter, but mine is in storage. I'd like to keep it for many years and the salt on the roads here just destroys cars. It's one of those things, you can't see it happening fast so a lot of people ignor it. As for driving on the snow, a decent set of winter tires and leaving the traction control should be enough.

That said, if the Mazda is in good shape I'd keep it. The BRZ doesn't have much room in it and a more practical car would be nice. It'd also come in handy when the BRZ is down for mods.
