mine sits under a carport all year, much better than nothing like previous years but it still gets wet when we get the sideways rain

Yup - it was only an inch or so in the general Buffalo area, but it's enough to get the salt trucks out and there's NO WAY my car will be exposed to that crap. So...it's in for the winter.
Sometimes I wish I lived in SO CAL or somewhere else where it stays moderately warm year around. I just got back from San Diego a couple days ago and it was really hard to board that plane knowing where I was going

I live in Texas and winters are so mild I can drive it all year, but she'll be in the garage most of the winter because of various projects. My DD is an 03 IS300 5spd. It gets the job done for my DD uses.
