My 370z got frozen

thats weird. My 370z was outside when edmonton hit -59*C a few years back and the car started up on the first try...everything worked. Engine sounded like a tank starting up but once warm, it was fine. Car also sat for almost 2 months at the base, not plugged in, in the middle of the winter and started up fine.

The damage was probably done long before he owned the car. Cars can sit still on dealer lots for 6+ months. Once the battery has been run dead it will never be the same again.

What?! -59C? That's 72F below 0!

That's hideously cold. That can't be right, can it?

Yes this is correct there's always super cold days out west in Canada. For me in Ontario come February it's normal to see any where from -15 to -30C. Out west it's even worse. Then add the wind chill and ya it's pretty F*cking cold!
