Weather?

[blinkwatt]

How many of you have considered weather as factor when buying your Boxster?

I know I shouldn't buy a Box from Louisiana or Florida. Are there any other places I should stay away from when searching for my Boxster?

Are Washington & Texas o.k. to buy a car from?

Is snow and that stuff really that bad for a car?

It's not the snow that's an issue...it's the salt! But, many P-car owners store the car during the winter.

I'd buy one, from cold-weather States, if store properly.

What do you mean by storing properly?

If it's left in the garage during the winter is that o.k.?

I consider these (most of them) to be storing properly.

Whoa! That's like basically making your car a mummy.

Thanks for the link.

The entire body of the Boxster is galvanized and has a ten year rust free guarantee from Porsche. So it shouldn't matter, I got mine in a snow state, and I look forward to driving it in the snow all year.
