Those that dont have to store their car, EAD.


I haven't driven the car in a month, but today I finally moved her down to my lower garage for the winter. I will work on the interior/trunk and stereo here and there over the winter, but the garage height is only 7 feet so I will have to wait until spring to pull the motor and start on the turbo build.

I've already started to collect some stuff including some Forged M Systems with turbine covers. I plan on refinishing these over the winter as well.












Lets see your car sleeping and tell us what your plans are for the winter.

I plan to drive my car every day during winter, and hopefully get a lot more maintenance/mods done as winter is the best time. Summer will downright kill you. I love wintertime in arizona.

hahahahaha This is one of the few pluses to living in the valley of relentless sun.

My red car is tucked away in my only garage right now. I want to move it because I still work on other cars and it is very stressful carrying tools around her. :-O

My plans are to finish the interior, and all the little trim 100% so I can take first at the 2009 concours.
My original plans were to finish the E30M3 5 lug swap but I still need brakes and wheels.

haha, if anything, I would store my car during the official summer heat months. Getting into a black exterior, leather interior car during the summer here is like stepping into a sauna

Damn I miss the old pad, underground parking FTMW - winter or summer.

Winter?, winter?, my car has been in this mode since I got it.

[gearheadE30]

Lol, and I just got snow tires so I can drive mine. At least I work at a carwash so I can clean it out every week.

I put my vert away for the winter, no way I'm driving a soft top on 17" Pirelli P-zero Nero tires with white leather in the winter.
