We're finally getting cool-ish weather, but courtesy of a ton of rain so you can't really enjoy it thoroughly.

Such as Seattle winters along with our horrible roads / drivers. This is one of the worst places to own a nice car.

You guys crack me up. I drive my car year round here in Maryland, even in the dead of winter. Ok, to be totally truthful, my tires aren't great in snow even though they're all seasons, so I don't drive it in snow, ice or when lots of salt is on the road but I certainly don't put it away in winter. It's drive all winter minus those situations. Not judging, "just sayin'."

I am spoiled, 70s and 80s for the most part, occasional 90s and rarely 100's. Recently, dropped to 60's and I have my hoodie on with my top down, feels chilly. Hahaha. It's all relative.
