For all of you who keep their cars in winter storage you are all wusses ! LOL

Fortunately for me I live in an area where we have mild winters and I'm able to keep the S on the road with an extra set of wheels/snows mostly for driveability when the temps drop below 45 degrees.

Honestly, if I lived in the northern climes my baby would be wrapped and in the garage! But I'd sure go nuts if I couldn't drive it every day.

I've got a 2 foot snow drift in front of the garage door where mine is sleeping. Temp is supposed to get into the single digits tonight.

Know how you feel op. I drive my 99 Impreza for the winter and take out the S only if the roads are ok once a month.

Every damn day!! I miss it and just wanna drive it everywhere! Can't wait for spring and summer and hopefully it'll be here soon. I like the fact that I can have the S tucked away for the winter time but I just miss it so much and wanna go drive it!

+1

That said I just don't think I could not daily drive my car, why would anyone want to drive a lesser car and leave the S sitting in the garage?

I took mine out two nights ago, two sweatshirts, gloves and a winter hat and threw the top down and cruised some of the back roads, one of lifes greatest enjoyments.
