>>Certainly, do NOT leave your Box outside uncovered.

While I understand that we all want our cars to look as best as possible, I just don't have the time to keep the car always covered. Now, mine is a daily driver and I drive it all over - work, groceries, mall, friends, road trips. I took it to Costco and watched the amazed looks on peoples' faces as I fit two baskets full of stuff into the trunks. I put the top down and drove away under sunny skies with a big grin on my face.

The point is that it is a CAR and has a finish that will not melt away with a cross look. I live in Tampa where the sun is either beating down or it is raining cats and dogs, sometimes within minutes of each other. Well, I wash it once a week, keep the bird ******************** off and the car looks great even though I park it outside the majority of the time.

It is a beautiful car, yes. It is a special car, yes. But it is also meant to be driven and drive it I do. But most of the time when I get to whereever I am going, I usually cannot find covered parking or take the time to throw the car cover on. And when I get home after a hard day at work, or when I know I am going out again later in the day, more times than not I just park it on my old ribbon driveway (since I have a very old, very cramped and not easily accessible detached garage). Am I in the minority here?
