This car has not seen snow since I have owned it Dec 26 2008. The Oil has been changed every 2000 miles or less with Mobil-1 and I have changed the gearbox and dif. oil twice with Motul 300. The car is in excellent condition but is not perfect it is a used car and has some rock chips and scratches but overall is a very nice car and looks like new. 2008 was the last year for Manual transmission and this one has it. The car drives, Rides and handles like a new car I had the stereo upgraded it is a great mix of sound that makes the drive even more enjoyable. I am a 50-years old not 25.
