At least your car is white. :)

My Cobra sat through that winter snow storm, alongside of getting absolutely trashed the past few weeks in the rain. Hasn't been washed in a month or two. What's the point ...

At least you have the strength to type out the above on your computer, I wouldn't! In the almost 3 years I've owned my Cobra since buying it new, I've only got caught in ANY type of inclement weather once coming back from Charlie on BALD ARSE DR's.

Freak summer rain storm came out of nowhere. Pulled over under a gas station and waited it out. Then waited another hour or so for the sun to dry off most of the highway. Creeped out into I-5 and was fine all the way home.

Can't lie though. Spent 3+ hours pressure washing and scrubbing the under carriage. :) Wasn't even that bad.....

I'm sure it will happen again, only a matter of time. My car is also dent/ding/scratch free (knock on wood). I can't wait to see the seizure I go into when I get my first of those.....

my car sits in the rain(don't have covered parking for it) besides it's just rain.. not like it's going to hurt it.. they don't use salt on the roads here, so you don't have to worry about rust.

My big worrys in driving in the rain are lack of traction and hydroplaining.. which is why I drive my Explorer with all terrain tires when it's raining..

Thank goodness you were joking. You were about to get the WUSS treatment, but all seems cool now :thumbsup:

I drove mine in everything, rain, snow, it didn't matter. The car was real good in the rain up to 130 or so with Toyo's on but sucked balls with the MT's or Hoosiers. I had 58,000 miles on it in 18 months.

And this is why Charlie has WAY more balls that I do......... Charlie,you rock.

I would LOVE to drive mine more, but can't bring myself to do it. Out of 17 mustangs I've owned, it's the only one I've ever bought new, and probably the only one I ever will. Before this car, I daily drove every stang I owned, including my 565WHP Vortech'd 94 Cobra.

That's why I bought my 93 coupe, so I can always have a stang to drive. These past couple of months I had her has really made me realize how much I miss driving a stang all the time... :)

To you guys that drive your Cobra's all the time, I am VERY envious.....
