so will need to wait another week.

next week looks pretty promising so far with the lows above freezing.

Must suck to not own a car 4-5 months out of the year.

Some guy from work thought he would try to pass me on the highway with his miata. I laughed, pushed it to the floor, and smiled as I flew by his little red go cart.

Fire · 03-02-2012, 11:42 AM

Gauge it isn't a matter of owning it as driving it. Could probably get away with buying snow tires and running it but why ruin it with salt and sand?

It's not bad actually. The Z is a not a dd car for me. Even in the summer I don't drive it daily to work, just here and there. I average about 2000 miles per year. I baby it like no other as far as leaving it in the sun too long, driving in rain, driving in snow, parking close to others, etc.

I want to preserve it not have it be a rust bucket by year 5. And for those that say what if you decide to sell it after a few years of ownership. Winter garaged cars will fetch a nice premium.

you're like me, zman!

Fire · 03-02-2012, 11:50 AM

Zman I'm like you about 2000 miles and watch for rain.

Fire · 03-02-2012, 11:54 AM

Well guys I'm off to my Chevy dealer to confront them on my ZL1 order. They will not give me my order # and the official GM site for following orders says there is no reason not to have my order # and my car may not actually be on order as they say it is.

See you guys in a little bit.
