Also-precautions when trying to start my car..sat 3 mos

I think I should try to start my car...but it has been sitting for 3 months. I have been afraid to start it because some fluid did leak out when it sat overnight immediately after the accident. Nothing is on my garage floor though, where it has sat since the end of November. I can't get hood open (unless I really try to pry it.). Peeking in, I can see the coolant level is fine. Should I just try to start her up? I feel like I could be doing more bad by letting it sit so long. Also, we have been in a cold snap here...teens and low 20s for quite some time...does that make it any more risky?
With the car sitting in my 2 car garage (and the other half filled with junk that can be relocated), I could get a 9-5 and not have to make a decision on the 9-3 right away, which is nice. (The 2011 Forester lives outside, haha)
Thanks!
