Warranty only covers sheetmetal rust at that point.

You already had your car

True.....anything I can do to help protect it?

Should I be concerned with my Z being exposed to rain, or just mainly the salt on the roads?

cars are waterproof lol. It's always nice to have a garage, I wish I did. It's the salt in the winter that is the hardest on the paint, and also how low the Z is. I doive my G35 coupe in 3 winters, in snow with blizzaks. Drove fine.

I just bought a beater for the winter, old suburu legacy -- I plan on keeping my Z inside or with a cover when weather gets bad.

I'm going to drive mine - I also just had a car port installed on the side of my house. Winter, **** you!

it's not the end of the world. your car will withstand the snow, salt or whatever the mother nature throws at it.

I haven't seen any issues from rain, just salt.
Try and keep salt from sitting on it

^ liar!

That's gonna be tough. The roads are salty like everyday when it's snow season here and I'm not washing it every day :p

yeh salt destroys everything

A problem I never worried about with the NSX! :)

Of course, the NSX also seemed to magically avoid rocks and bugs and the 370Z magically attracts them!

Its only a car... put aa cover on it and done. I used to take my400hp mustangg gt out in 2-3in of snow with with summer tires on it. Nvr hhad any problems. Spend the money for a cover and wipe the snow off when its covered wont have any problems

You don't need to wash it everyday. The 370Z is not some mystical creature that will fall apart the second it is abused. If you wash it a few days after the snow, you'll get most of the salt off and you'll be fine. :)

Yeah I know, I was just joking. I'm kinda lucky though, where I work they have a car wash that you can go through which just sprays water on the car. Perfect for washing away salt :tup:

Also, I tend to get lazy when it comes to doing activities outside in the cold, I'm much more of a summer person :p
