Has the time arrived?....

For those who stored their m3 for winter, has spring finally sprung? Hate to cancel the storage and get hit with a fifth nor’easter 😤.

Think it's better we wait for sunshine on our bearings.

Cancel that damn storage and take it out.

It's an M3. It was made to drive in Germany, they have cold weather if you hadn't noticed.

SYT_Shadow · 03-30-2018, 03:58 PM

I've taken both of mine out already... it's hard not to!

I store them during winter but it's a painful process

And road salt 2 !

I never put it away, I just don't drive around during snow storms. It's not a 400k Ferrari Dino or something, a bit of salt here and there isn't going to do it any harm if you wash it off. No way i'm not enjoying my car for 4 months of the year!

Yea well I do store it, and no I haven't taken it out yet. And good thing because it snowed again today.

It may not be a Ferrari, but it's still a 73k sports car that I've made last for 8 years because I take care of it. Its special to me...why waste miles in 30 degree weather.

This weekend was perfect driving weather! Blazing sunshine, nice temps, and the good roads were open again. There were plenty of driveable days in NY this winter with no salt anywhere and temps well above freezing. The fact it's snowing today has no impact on whether you took the car out at the weekend or not, as it's back in the garage. I'm not trying to start an argument and totally up to you what you do with your car, but I don't think you can imply that driving your M3 in winter means the car isn't looked after...

Perfect weekend... until it snowed today...
