It's about that time. Time to take the 7 off the road for the winter. The weather here has been so cold and rainy lately. It just adds to the depressing mood of knowing I can't drive the RX for a few months. How many of you colder climate guys are putting yours away or already have?

Winter? I've never heard of it. It stays summer here all year long.

 

 

I drove mine all winter.

 

 

I wish it was still winter here, car goes a lot harder. On the other hand, the Gold Coast, the beach, topless babes... lifes tough!

 

 

snow = teh suck



That's why I'm moving to New Orleans

 

We usually drive our collector cars until Thanksgiving then store till Easter. Drive 4 X 4's when the white stuff is on the roads...ed

 

I'm just finishing up my turbo 7. It runs and will be tuned and finished within a week. Just in time for winter. My 7 never gets put away, I can't afford a winter beater, but I try to drive it as little as possible when there's salt on the roads, and I always spray off the car at least weekly.

A 250-300hp, 2100lbs car will be a fun winter car

 

curly... you're in Palmyra, as in near Newark and Macedon? If so I am sooo damn close to you. I work in Newark every day.

I plan on storing mine this winter, I also plan on doing some work on it in the winter months (getting rid of some surface rust and repainting the car)

I have a Suzuki jeep that i'm gonna use during the winter (the 4X4 is gonna be useful for our heavy snowfall we get up north)

Is there anything i should keep in mind when i store my car away like this for like 4-5 months. I'm gonna try to start it once a month and run it for a while and stuff, but is there anything else i could do.

 

zuki jeep? you gots a sammy?? those things are the best!

 

Don't forget to add some Stabil fuel stabilizer to the gas.

 

once it starts to get in the 30's everyday I'll be forced to put mine away for the winter. Most likely in a few weeks or so

 

Yeah it's not to bad here during the day, mid fifties or so. But the other day I left work at night and had FROST all over my GT.

 

Yeah I'm gonna need to think up something for my se real fast. It's gotten damn close to frost here, and I have no garage.

 

I'd rather put on a coat then sweat my ***** off down there. I remember going out to get the mail when I lived there and coming back in the house with sweat on myself durring the summer. But up here in MN sucks also because of the extreme cold we get sometimes. Louisiana was nice in the winter. I guess the north and south suck

 

Pennsylvania sucks too...sad thing is, by the time i get my car running real nice...salt and snow will shut me down :-(
