There is a flip side to not driving the P-car in winter.....it's that other guy, the one who has not quite mastered the art of driving in snow, the one who slips and slides gleefully with no coverage into your rolling work of art. Or the increased numbers of the financially challange who pray they can get by just one more ice storm on tires that should have given up the ghost 5k miles ago. On a bright note, there is nothing like rekindling the thrill at the sight of your car after months of hybernation. Feels good.

I'm a little further south than you- The first winter I thought of either putting it away or getting winter tires. I did neither, and just got a battery maintainer. Both winter so far there was maybe a month period where I didn't drive it once, but around here we get quite a few warm periods that are just perfect for an afternoon drive. Also seeing the sun through the Targa glass roof helps with the seasonal blues.
