On CompuServe there was a discussion about batteries, too (this was a few
months back). One of the Mazda dealers that advertises in the mag will sell the
batteries for $100. As mentioned, shipping charges for the HazMat will bump the
price back up to the cost of buying the battery locally. If you have a second
dealer nearby (where the staff is less obnoxious) you may try going there and
asking for a club discount (even if you're not a member-they may not ask to see
a membership card).
Did that pink miata have the plate "bunny 1" ? Someone on CompuServe
mentioned seeing *two* different pink miatas in the same week in Cali. I also
heard of a powder blue one that was at Indy last summer. It was owned by
someone in Texas. Other schemes I have seen are basic mix'n'match with the
hardtops (blue body/white hardtop, white body/blue hardtop, red body/black top,
etc).
