The old 911 gets stored but of the roads are ok for some fun driving the Boxster is coming out to play.

No way! I'd go into Boxster withdrawal if I couldn't drive it all winter. Weekday ride is the Number 1 train in Manhattan. Weekends reserved for the Boxster. :)

It's people like you who are helping us make this decision easier. After all we LOVE driving the dang thing. :dance:

This will be my first winter with my Boxster and I am NOT going to store it. I plan on driving it the entire season. I only have to drive 3.5 miles to the train station. Naperville is usually pretty good about clearing its roads.

As for salt when it starts to build up on the car I'll just wash it off in my driveway. :)


I have to store my sport bikes for the winter and I have so much fun on the Boxster to let it sit in my garage.

yea i take a train on daily bases, so i just have to take it to the train station that is like 7 miles from my house on a major road, other than that its all pleasure driving, and here they clean up the roads b4 it even gets a chance to stick :)

Airboxster, please check you owners manual. The tires should be over-inflated to about 58-59 PSI. Not 50PSI.

I would also not drive with the tires that over-inflated. You would need to deflate, drive, then over-inflate for storage again.

Djomlas, I have barely seen 20 Boxsters in the Chicago area the past 12 months, let alone during the winter driving season. Maybe I need to look better! :)

I just took it off of insurance yesterday for the Winter season. :(

My car went into Winter Storage on October 21st. It will come out in early March 2007!

you know what we need? a HUGE boxster meet in chicago area

Great idea, Djomlas, maybe you and I can organize this next Spring. I bet we could get assistance from Sammy and NickCats too.

Awesome idea. Seems like there are quite a few of us in Chicagoland.

Store your car? In the winter? This is strange.....Here in Texas we do not know of such things. It is supposed to be in the mid 80's today, and the only time we don't take them out of the garage is when it might snow once every two or three years. But it's usually all gone by the next day.

I usually get quite a few top down driving days in December, January and February. By March, it's perfect. By June, the top goes up and the A/C goes on and usually stays that way until September.

^ You guys have pretty much the opposite problem as us. It gets too hot for drop down driving instead of too cold. Here I am trying to figure out why my car even has air conditioning. :D

Game on!!! :D

I would hope that this is in addition to the trip to TN (Tail of the Dragon)?

It was ninety degrees out here for the past two days...

Kronix, I feel your pain. I'm in Ottawa, and I put mine away a week and a half ago. I'm going through withdrawal!!!

If I were keeping it at home, I would have kept it out a little longer, but I'm storing it about 50kms away, so I had to pick a nice day and just do it.

I have to also store the Z this weekend, but if the weather's nice I may be tempted to go for a spin!!

13 days down, only another 156 days to go!!! :(

Well the only thing that will make me garage my Boxster for the winter is if it starts to snow Shar Jones back-fat outside. If not...shes outside.

No storage for me either - winter just means different tires.

I would just be angry all winter if I was without the 987. Why work so hard with no reward?

haha this guy DEFINATLEY should have stored his for the winter
