Angry OT: How to store a Porsche for the winter.

REMEMBER LAST WINTER?! YIKES!

Leaving town during a cold winter without turning off the water pipes in your garage ............ PRICELESS!

I'm surprised that happened--after all that garage has been AAA approved, and has the sign to prove it.

I wonder what was the total damage to the cars and garage?

No, this wasn't my garage - apparently happened up in (to be expected?) Minnesota

Head west my man and then north.

The only thing that freezes in Vancouver is beer left too long in the freezer! Oh ya there is the odd hockey rink but we're not talking about that anymore.
