Tell more. Did you store the car outside all winter? Under snow? Did you clean snow off of the soft top? Did you get it out to "exercise" every month or so? Did you see any finish problems?

Thanks very much-ordered it and it's being made. Now do I have to worry about scratching? Not to mention the mice that have nested twice (once in the engine compartment, once in the trunk). The dealer said use mothballs but I'm afraid that will damage the paint. Why can't they nest in my old Subaru? I guess they like the new car smell. So aside from running the car once in a while in winter, any other winter ideas?

Read my post above in this thread. It has the retailer and the model of cover.

There has been some discussion on the board that start up puts the most wear on the engine.

I will be storing my car for the winter. I plan on changing my oil as close to the last driving day as possible. I will be putting the car on jack stands, taking the wheels off. I will keep it covered and have a trickle charger for the battery.

I will probably paint my calipers and brakes during this period.

I will not be starting the car unless I can drive it.

Just a FYI, s2000fans.com and s2ki.com are the club. We go by either. The s2ki, is our prefered name as this represents the international end.

There is a sponsor code for topnotch, so if you don't have or have have missed placed it, feel free to email any on the BoD.
