I couldn't even tell you the last time I drove mine. Novemberish maybe? I cleaned it all up yesterday and wanted to take it out so bad. It was sunny and about 45 here...but I know there's still a hint of salt on the roads, so I wasn't going to chance it. Still don't even have plates on it yet. I can't wait for spring.

Here's one for ya, mine has been down for about a month due to upgrades, Whipple, clutch, headers, fuel upgrades, etc. Going on the dyno next week. I just found out a few days ago that I am gonna have to have surgery on my back for a ruptured lumbar disc. So, I am finally gonna have upgrades done and tuned about the time I go in for surgery. Dr. is telling me I cannot drive for a few weeks. That blows sir! Just gonna be sitting there ready to go, but I can't!!!

It's the worst up here in Calgary, Alberta. We are having an extremely mild winter for our climate so the roads have been clear for the most part and we are often seeing daytime highs of anywhere between +5 and +12 celsius so it's drivable weather but since we get a snowfall every now and again, or dip into below zero weather putting insurance back on the car isn't worth it. It's just toying with my emotions...can't wait to get her back on the road.

Exactly, well hasn't been that warm here but barley any snow. Make up your mind lots of snow so I can go sledding or none so i can drive my car this middle shit sucks! With it sitting just keep looking at money to spend on it

I'm in the same boat as most of you, refusing to get any road salt on her. On the other hand it's given me plenty of time for all of my cooling mods, brake upgrades, suspension mods, exhaust work and cleaning up the previous owner's half assed wiring.

Picked the car up in late September and only put about 400 or so miles on it before storing it. The guy before me had put nitrous in and ran the wiring so haphazardly I'm surprised it didn't start on fire. I pulled the kit and sold it to fund some other goodies that are more practical for me.

Can't wait for spring! My car has been garaged for 4 months now. I just started her up yesterday for the first time in a couple months and it was great to her her run! I'm think bout some Spring Mods to add a little excitement :)

I had mine out two weeks ago. But now I'm stuck in damn Bahrain without a return date. So..... Not sure when I will get back to drive it, but as soon as I do, it's on!

One week before Thanksgiving every year she goes down for winter hibernation. Till the first week of May or so, as long as the spring rains are gone. It helps me keep the miles low, I don't want a high miler.
