Just picked up an 05 touring, 6 speed, utra yellow. Since being in Syracuse and its the end of December, you can imagine where it is already. Yes, was able to get it home and parked for the winter. Was a blast driving home though!!! Can't wait to get it out. Will send some pics once the weather/snow clears.

Any suggestions on storing for the next 4-5 months? Would be much appreciated.

 

Welcome!

Wow, I can't think of worse tortures.....driving a brand new Z into your garage with the prospect of the facing the rest of a winter in upstate New York.....Ohhhhh the pain!!!!!!

 

There have been a number of threads on storing the Z.......here is one for example.....you can use the search tools for others.

I store mine also...I preferr to start it on a regular basis, so I keep it on a carpeted surface in the garage (carpet squares under each of the tires)......and since I have to get a regular "fix", it is too much trouble to cover.......but that is an option too.

 

congrat on your new Z. Welcome to the Z family.

 

Thanks for the info. I have a feeling I will probably go the route you did with starting on occation. I can now understand wanting that "fix".

Yes, it has been torture as I am on vacation this week. Can't tell you how many times I have gone out to look at it today!!

 

DAMN IT! DRIVE IT!


why buy a car just to park it! winter is not going to hurt the car!

if there is a lot of snow and ice then yeah but other that that you should be fine.



i just cant stand the people that say" i wont drive my car iun the rain or in the winter when there is nothing out"


bs i tell ya!!! lol


anyways welcome and congrats

 

Is there snow on the ground?

 

easier said than done on most days. though I have to tell ya....I got a few miles in today!! Just couldn't wait and its only the first day of having it. Will power is going to be tough to manage...

 

My 350Z is waterproof: I’m dry inside while its raining outside. Maybe others have the non-waterproof model.

 

Road salt can be very destructive. Congrats on the new ride!
