If I 1) had a Civic already and 2) had an extra garage parking space, I'd have kept it for the winter. You can certainly get by with the Z. However, driving a Z with snow tires takes away all the machismo fun of the car...you might as well be driving a Civic. We also just worked on our Zs yesterday and one of our friends keeps his in the garage all winter. His car looked showroom new underneath while ours were caked with dirt and grime. Would I like to have a perfect looking Z? Sure. It's just not possible with my current living situation. I wouldn't let winter stop you from owning one though...no regrets here!
