BTW: if someone places such a high value on one's 986 to preserve it from winter elements by garaging it, why try to save a few bucks over low cost preventive items such as changing roughly 10 quarts of oil.
Actually, its not the value I place by garaging it as much as not driving a rear wheel car in snow weather;I have an Audi for that.
