Garage kept?

Always in the garage and covered. It keeps the paint, interior, and chassis looking new and keeps all the outside environmental effects off of it. Plus I only need to wash it about once or twice a year.

Always garaged, every single night. On my old 84 that I sold last year, I have had my tires slashed, my car scratched several times, and have had several things stolen. And my old Fiero, which was parked on the street in front of my house once, was totaled when someone rear ended it and ran! Needless to say, my new 85 vette will be in the garage every night.

Yes, my ultra rare 91 Z07 automatic has been garaged since 1993 
when the previous owner lightly smacked the front( no frame damage, but lost his nerve, I guess.The car had not been outside until I bought it, now it's in my garage ). It has 12,768 original miles and is fully optioned including performance rear axle. Needs a bumper assembly which I am in the process of hunting down.

I love it but its a car. I park mine in the driveway for easy access, and I have a garage I could park it in, but choose not to.

With my floor, you don't want to do it unless you have a lot of time on your hands and you don't mind working outside.
I covered the concrete with a sealer and then used self stick vinyl floor tiles from Home Depot. They mark up easily and you can't use any kind of jack/lift on them. There are tiles you can buy from the auto magazines like Griot's Garage and Autosport that will let you use jacks without tearing up the tiles. A heck a lot more expensive, but worth it if you plan on doing any of your own work.

If garaged and covered means parked in front of the garage and covered means layered in frozen precipitation.
