During the occasional bouts of really rainy weather here, I will garage the S but take it out on my GF... "is that your Voodoo shift knob in your pocket or are you just glad to see me?"

I DD my S2000 and am on track to rack up ~35k on it this year. No winter blues. I'm sure you've seen my pics of taking it out in the snow.

Driving in the rain and snow makes me appreciate driving it in the sunshine that much more. O, and driving on less than perfectly dry roads helps me understand the rears' desire to be in the front that much more.

+1 for taking the car out at least once a week. I do have a winter beater that I drive if there's snow/water on the streets but if the streets are dry I'm gonna drive the S.

Winter driving an S here is out of the question. Some days we wake up to knee to waist height snow! I cope by playing lots of forza and flinging shit on local car forums


loooots of video games ahhaha

I took mine out of my shop, parked it in a parking spot, then pulled it back in, does that count for something? I've done this a few times now and the last time there was snow on the ground and I had to put it in third and spin the tires til I melted all the snow off the concrete just to get it back in lol. 3 year old, bald, RE01R's don't like snow.

I cope by playing lots of Counter Strike, Forza 3, watching Best Motoring vids, S2ki, you know the good stuff.

I drive it regardless of the conditions, snow, rain or otherwise.

Me too. My S2K is my daily driver all year.
