How many of you will drive your vette this Winter ?
I know some folks totally put their vettes up for the winter........I do not think that I can go 3-4 months without driving my vette. I drove my C4 for five years, all year long, 4 of those 5 years, I was in Texas................. But with my "New" 03 vert I will not drive on ice, snow, or rain.........But on those nice dry days I do not think I will be able to resist driving that beautiful car, but no long trips.
What about you..................

In kentucky winter can be somewhat unpredictable, but there are still some nice days to go around. The first year I had my vette I winterized it. The last 2 years I just drove it on the nice days just like it was summer. Why not, the engine likes the cold air anyway.

I know what you mean............I was in Houston 2003-04 and I remember one time I was over at McGregor Park the first part of Jan and the leaves were still on the trees and they were green and the grass was also green.............I wish I were still there............

Mine will be up on stands most of the winter getting taken apart for a fresh coat of paint and a targa top.... however I drive mine year round. Have the truck for ****ty days, but if it's not ****ty why not drive a Corvette 
In Florida we only have three seasons, not four. 
And two of the seasons dont last very long.

These California winters can be really unpredictable! I might have to wear a sweatshirt when I take the top off

Unless there is snow on the ground, my C5 is on the road. Its my daily driver 19mi each way to and from work, as well as any side trips I feel like.
I like fall/winter....the car has an extra 30+rwhp and the tires aren't sticky so it feels like I have 600+rwhp!
