i usually get mine away right around thanksgiving, but then again the last two year we haven't got any snow until then. the car is always inside so it's pretty easy to just decide it's time and put it on jack stands and change the oil and throw the cover over it.

Mine needs a serious detail to get rid of this season's cone marks. Then it will be a full fluid change. Sometime between Halloween and Thanksgiving it will go away for hibernation. I thought about having the front bumper repainted, but will wait another year. No more mods. I like the subtle changes I've done to this point and need to save pennies for the baby NSX.

But after talking to a couple of people, they don't feel it's necessary on a car with 52k miles that is 8 years old.
I have done about 8 track days on the car in that span in addition to normal summer driving.
I'm also hearing that its a lot of labor cost to do that.
In your opinion (or anyone else that cares to comment) do I need to do this? Other than the track days, one other reason I have considered
doing it is that the car "creaks" when it is sitting and it's moved a little bit. Figured that was the bushings starting to go bad/dry out.
