Well, the s2k has been garaged for a couple weeks now, and I'm certainly missing the car. Driving a '00 4 door automatic civic sucks, but it's great for fitting stuff in and going snowboarding. They've already dumped a ton of crap on the roads here in the DC metro area, so I guess it'll be a good 2.5+ months till I drive the car again..

I drove mine yesterday after waiting for the snow to dissipate. Most of the crap has blown away anyways.

True Sfed, but looks like more snow is on the way, and I'm hoping this will be a cold winter. My dark green civic is covered with salt/crap, and can't help but think it's not good for the paint/car. I thought about how fun it'd be to go playing around in the snow, but want to keep all the chemicals and crap off the car if at all possible. Besides, I saw a nice 335i stuck on a small incline on the way home from work last week = buzzkill.

We do not store our cars here in Virginia for the winter as it's reasonably mild here but mine does not come out if roads are icy or salt residue covered.

As a result of this crazy cold December the S2000 has not seen the roads since Thanksgiving! I hope to have her out soon though.

keeping a car stationary for great lengths of time kinda worries me. If it's a nice day I'll drive it up to the store and back. Otherwise, she is a garage queen for the season.
