Mine is in the garage (driven occasionally) and my daughter's MY01 is in the drive getting it's annual "touch-up": leather treatment on the seats, protectant cover on the top, console "cup holder" repair, differential oil change, brake fluid change, clutch fluid change, and probably a host of other things that are easier to accomplish in the relative warmth of the south (Houston). They both are driven occasionally, but both have "battery-minder" chargers connected. When it's relatively sunny and above about 40 degrees, they are out with the top down. In March (or April or so) hers goes back to Minnesota for the summer. She has a Ford Escort Wagon beater for winter.
Spa Yellow and Rio Yellow - the best colors, except for possibly Laguna Blue which ranks up there with the yellow. Silver is too common, black is too ordinary, white is a good alternative, I've had red and it's good too.

cars are made to be driven..and who knows maybe you'll regret not driving it as much down the road. the future is unpredictable, just enjoy it now, you can always replace it later..
i also used to be really anal about my car and never drove it but realized it's such a waste especially if i'm paying insurance for it everyday. also it's hard to keep away from top down on nice days even in the winter. (top down last 2 days in 40 degree weather)

Everyone's idea of rich is different, lets just say the S has been paid a long long time and it's function for me is primarily a fun toy when the weather is warm.
