Mid November. Pulled the cover back last weekend to show a friend. Hopefully next weekend it will be nice for first Pittsburgh Cars and Coffee.

Same here. Haven't even lifted the cover since then.

The last time I drove it was to work on Friday; I've been driving it to work all winter. I don't have a garage, but I did put it in the driveway instead of parking it on the street for the snowstorm.

I do have snow tires on it, with a winter compound that seems to give me better performance on snow than most SUVs have. The down side is that the snow tires are limited to 118 mph. They also have noticeably less performance on dry pavement than summer tires; I have to drive about 10% slower on most dry roads than I could with the summer tires.

October 1st, and that's the latest I've had the car out in quite some time. I usually put it away in late August.

It'll probably be May before I have it out this year.

T rated snow tires. The same rating as on my wife's Odyssey all season tires, so the Odyssey can go as fast as the S2000 for the winter.

Faster than I usually drive, but not fast enough to run from police.
