Everyone has their own opinion on this. For me, I change the oil before storage and take it on a nice long run to get the engine/oil temps up. Then I do a full detail, hook it up to a battery maintainer and put her in the garage under the cover. I will not start it up until we get decent spring weather. Last time my Z ran was the first week of Nov.
Personally I don't think idling the car in the middle of winter a couple times a month is beneficial. Given your battery isn't dead, modern day cars should start right up with no issues after sitting for a few months.
