Unhappy First Day of Storage

I'm bummed, car is now ready for winter, happily sitting in my comfy garage.

Decided to put her in storage since I will be gone the next few months. Changing the oil this weekend.

Kinda bummed that I can't drive it, canceled my insurance (kept comprehensive), saving about $160.00.

Bright side, no miles and will be clean when I take her out after winter.

Anyone else storing the Z this winter? Sux but then again it doesnt suck!

Thinking of ordering the NISMO exhaust and new set of front componets to install while sitting through the winter.

Winters are tough on us car guys - I used to live in Ohio and always had a winter beater - - now i just enjoy the sunshine

You'll like the Nismo exhaust, its an easy install with the rear on jack stands - I just put the Nismo sways on last weekend, what a difference, nice upgrade.

Take care and keep that Z tucked in tight

Don't feel too bad -- don't even think that your baby is sitting in the garage thinking "what did I do wrong?"
