Storing for the winter ?

You guys all need to drive and enjoy your car more... There was weeks that I put on 3000 miles.

Hehe.... you’re right. I should be driving it more during the summer. In the winter, forget it! They put more salt down than the Utah Salt Flats. My Z would turn to dust in no time. Can’t do it.

You are the MAN!
I won't be able to touch your Zs mileage, with my daily drivers no matter how long I keep them (230,000 mi.) is my highest, and the body is pretty well shot !

I want to keep mine pristine and beautiful. Also, If I keep myself from driving it for about a week or two it feels like a different car when I hop in it. Never gets old.

I drove mine pretty much everyday, always put a smile on my face even after 2 week road trips. But I get what you are saying.
