Default Sigh... Last day for the R

Last day for this year anyways... It's winter time once again!!!!


How many of you store your R's, or drive them in the snow anyways?
I wish i live in a tropical climate 365 days a year.

Winter is when you rebuild everything that you broke throughout the year and upgrade everything that you can afford to.

I've never lived in a cold climate (I'm from FL). Does everyone up there have a beater car for the winter, or just those with really nice cars? I always read about people storing their cars for the winter. Why not just get some snow tires and drive in the snow?

I have to agree. Unless the R is slammed too low, just put on snows. If you're worried about rust, wash regularly and rust proof. If you're a collector, you shouldn't be driving the car anyway so what's the point of storing it? It's not like the car is not capable in the snow and RWD.
