Heated Seats...at 70 degrees? that's too funny! I guess 70 IS kind of chilly out there in AZ though...lol

It was 58 here in NC yesterday & I had the top down & no heated seats, no heat from the dash vents - normally I at least have the seats on but for some reason I didn't yesterday...

That's just cruel and unusual punishment to your poor 'Maro!

Below 70 and my heater/seat warmers are on

Below 60 tops up and cars headed to hibernation

Below 50 and she's nestled away in the garage, sleeping soundly till the 60s come back!

woodj · 01-06-2012, 12:30 PM

Mid 60's here today and the car is out in the parking lot. May be a top down drive to the house this afternoon.

IL-Tracker · 01-06-2012, 05:00 PM

Hi of 62 in Central Illinois. Top down to the Hill Prairie Winery (that's redneck Oakford, IL not Napa Valley) for a bottle of wine, cheese & crackers, and fresh air.

Even with all the issues and concerns, I still love this car.

Nutbutt · 01-06-2012, 08:51 PM

Gotta tell ya I didn't take it out

Man that's beautiful... as much as I love white, and believe in my reasons for getting it, I still LOVE black!!!!!!

ncbob · 01-08-2012, 05:34 PM

70 here in Charlotte Saturday. Top definitely down.
Man those Flowmasters sound good. Also noticed that wind buffeting is not a big issue.

"Man that's beautiful... as much as I love white, and believe in my reasons for getting it, I still LOVE black!!!!!!"

Thanks. Black can be a real challenge - but can look so good when clean.
Been unseasonably warm here in the midwest, but that is about to change by this weekend. Will have to keep it inside for a while. :(

Same story here, traded my 2010 coupe for a 2011 vert. Always wanted the vert but couldn't wait for chevy to decide to produce it!

Inferno SH · 01-18-2012, 09:38 PM

Who said it was winter, I live in Arizona! Nice and sunny year round.

ctinatx · 01-19-2012, 02:00 PM

I went for a nice top down drive at lunch today

SnowVert · 01-19-2012, 05:12 PM

We hit 42 a couple weeks ago. I was just so excited that mine was back from the shop that I dropped the top and went for a nice cruise. I was surprised how comfortable I was with the heated seats, heater cranked and a nice winter jacket on...

Right now it is 3 degrees and dropping quickly... Pretty sure it is going to stay in the garage tonight while I work.

DandyB · 01-20-2012, 09:02 PM

Can you say wind therapy?

oswego16 · 01-20-2012, 10:06 PM

picking up my son right now from a party. 11:00 TOP DOWN. love CHarleston SC

Lightrider · 01-21-2012, 09:22 AM

4" of snow this morning. At least the pup loved it.

C'mon March...

GnyaTek · 01-25-2012, 12:06 AM

Monday weather cleared and was in the 50's so drove to and from work with top down. Garaged the car overnight with top down and Tuesday morning, though was a crisp 39 degrees out, it was sunny and no wind so drove it to work top down... lotta strange looks and quite a few smiles (or were they laughing at me?) from other drivers on the road.

tramtwo · 01-30-2012, 04:11 PM

This pass weekend was PERFECT top down weather.
