It's really fun to drive but too bad we have to put them away for winter.

Who says it has to be put away for winter?

1000's in cold climates drive them year round and even (gasp) in rain and snow

I guess you don't have to but I also have two all wheel drive vehicles to get by the winter. I think it would be a shame to put it through salt and snow as they are too nice for that.

The amount of salt they use in Ontario is crazy. I lived in the Toronto area for 28 years and saw so many rust buckets it was scary. I'm in Manitoba again where it gets too cold for salt to really work so they use a ton of sand so you get traction on packed snow/ice in the streets.Takes all the fun of driving a sports car in winter.
