My S2000 has been in storage since September 15th (the first snowfall of the season where gravel was used to sand the icy roads.) I have started her once since then, about a month ago. I just had to. I'm a proponent of the "don't start" clan, but couldn't resist myself. (How sad is that?) I do pull back the cover every so often just to check on her. Like it was said earlier, just knowing that she's mine, sitting in my garage is enough to evoke pride. As to when it will come out of storage, well that is yet to be seen. The roads will have to melt and dry up completely with all gravel pushed out to the side of the road before my S2000 sees the light of day again. I'm guessing late April, early May to be safe

I agree, we certainly do need a "stored s2000s relief thread" or something to that effect. Since it was your idea, why dont you start one? I don't want to rain on your parade.

I have a ten year old car that I store in the garage from the middle of Nov thru the middle of April . I pull the car outside every 3 to 4 weeks and start it and let it run 30 to 45 mins and then pull it back in to its happy home! I have been doing this for at least the last 6 years and have had no problems at all with this procedure!!!!!!!!
I have not had the heart to tell it yet that if an 03 S comes calling for its spot she will be demoted to outside or worse she will be homeless and looking for a new home(FOR SALE)!

What a lucky Ford to have had you take such nice care of it!!!

Definitely sell it. You will completely forget about it as soon as you get the S.

A Probe GT, wow i remember those. I used to want one of those Now you barely see any on the roads here. With only 24,000 on it, its destined to become a classic
