Mine is coming out today in about 5hrs for the first time this year. We have had a mild New England winter and this weekend calls for sunny and 60s. Not a lot of sand/salt were used this winter and some heavy rains washed it to the edges of the roads. Cant wait!

I first took it out this year on January 1. Then other days in Jan., Feb., and a few times so far in March. We have year round Corvette driving weather up here if you do not mind the car getting a little wet sometimes.

With any luck tomorrow or Sunday. If not next weekend weather permitting that is. I would usually wait till end of March but the weather here has just been great.

Definitely tempting with the warm temps here in MI, but I will wait for all the salt to get washed off the roads...probably be early April at best. Gettin' the itch for sure!

I don't even know the concept of winter storage.

I even drove it in the rain the past few days. Doesn't look like it's melted into oblivion yet.

As planned I took it out today. Engine started as soon as the key was turned, no cranking and later starting, it was rarrin' to go! Went for a ride and said, "wow this car is fun to drive" all over again, just like the very first time.
