Default How long has your Z been parked because of weather?

I'm approaching 3 weeks now without my 370Z and I am not handling it well. The alleyway behind my house has mounds of snow on the side, there's still sheets of ice around, and worst of all there is still salt, sand, and mountains of snow everywhere.

I miss my car so much. I've been praying for a downpour of rain to wash all of this nasty sh*t away. =(

Yep. The car is just accumulating dust inside the garage, it's so depressing.

Got our first snowfall today for the year. It's sitting nice and cozy in the garage right now.

Hopefully it doesn't have to be in there long.

Mine's been parked since 1 November . What sucks is, I'd have to wait until 1 March to drive it, or get all-season tires. Damn German laws

Well if its ur garage toy then its understandable...Some people on here jus takes it too far and treat the Z like an exotic even in stock form..

Isn't that worse than just letting it sit?
