It's not my favourite picture but I see nothing wrong with it. I get lots of days like this here. It's no big deal. You guys are just spoiled. The thing does have a block heater in it and with snow tires it goes pretty much anywhere. For all its great and wonderful characteristics, the S2000 is just a car and a Honda to boot. And the gravel, salt and rock chips? Wash it when it needs it, fix the bad chips when ya see em. BTW - have gone thru one winter. No rock chips yet (been wacked a few times, too). The paint's tougher than you think. I didn't buy it just so it can be a garage ornament half the year. (Now a Viper -- there's a garage ornament. No ground clearance and ya can't buy snow tires in 335 size.)

OMG, am I glad I live in Wyoming's banana belt.

It hasn't snowed like that here in Sheridan for at least 36 hours.

I drove a hundred miles this morning just for fun.

Right now, outside it is 65 deg F and partly sunny/partly cloudy. I've just used Z7, Z1 and Z5 and I'm waiting for the Z5 to dry.

Hey xviper, how can you see nothing wrong with that picture???? The top is up!!!! There is always something wrong with that picture, I would like to see you drive your snow tired car home in this mess with the top down!!

Siepel/Wasabe, I share your pain, I am about 20 miles south of you and dying to get the car out of the garage, perferably with the top down!

Nothing wrong with the picture, it looks normal to me! Snow comes down, top goes up. Sun comes up, top goes down. Isn't that one of Newton's physics laws? No sympathy coming to you from those of us in New England. AutoX canceled today, to much snow on track.

Here is how to solve our problem though. Everyone needs get from behind the computer screens, run outside and do the old indian "Sun Dance" and then it will be over and done with and spring will have sprung.
