Damn Weather
This stinks. I bought my 2007 last week and it RAINS EVERY DAY. I am not a primidonna when it comes to my car but i'd like to keep it off the filthy wet roads for at least its infancy. It says Sun tomorrow, lets hope so what good is a brand new corvette if you can't even enjoy driving the damn thing

Had to drive my C6 to Road America for the ALMS race. Rained most of the way on Friday. Guess what! It didn't melt! That's my car in the Corvette Corral (second from the right)

You guys and your rain complaints! 
Out here in sunny So. Cal. we have no idea what rain is in the summer time. Good for the car, bad for the avocado grove. You don't want to know how much it costs to water avocados in the summer.

We've had a couple of sprinkles in the Seattle area since early June. Oh sorry, I forgot, it rains here ALL the time. 
Seriously, sorry to hear about the weather there. I got my car in December and it DOES rain here then. It was really tough to see it sitting in the garage and not being able (okay willing) to drive it. And then, when I did drive it and the roads were a little damp the butt got all dirty.
Hang in there. The weather will improve and you'll be able to drive soon!

It's raining like a cow pi$$ing on a flat rock here and I'm due to pick up the new 07' (redundant) this evening. I don't care - .
