I had to do something similar today in my Jeep. Didn't bring the softtop, and it started pouring. Drove home in the rain with no top on too...

 

I guess I beat you all, my S has never seen rain ................................ Wipers are original, never been changed, will probably dry rot at this rate.

 

cranked it up to 130+ to reach the next toll plaza at the first sign of hail.. as I pulled up to the booth golf sized hail started falling... traffic stopped and I stood there for a full 3 mins. Saw lots of cars messed up. I was spared. Flame suit on for the speeding, but the thought of dealing with insurance and stuff made my foot very heavy.

 

Whats hail? garage queen here.....

 

Wanabe beat you better.
He took his wipers OFF.

 

It hailed in VA about a week ago... I just went to the bank and parked the S under the drive-thru area.

 

same here

....can't say the same for my Civic though. 2 minutes into Relay for Life last year and there was a horrrrible hail storm. Poor Civic....

 

I try not to drive my S when it rains......people think i am crazy. If what the previous owner told me is correct, my MY00 has seen rain twice in it's life. Both times by me....

 

My wipers are original too, and I even still have the original washer fluid in the tank. I have no idea if the washer works, it's never been used.

Since buying my S 8 years ago I've become a fan of the Weather Channel. I watch it each night, and if there's even a chance of rain, it stays in the garage the next day.

 

That's funny... when it rainstorms, I go out and hit the backroads with the wipers at full power, lol...
