Ha! The weather has been crazy in Chicago. I drive my Z4 all year, but I was able to go top down in January and February on a few days. This March, we've had a string of record-breaking 80+ degree days. I swapped out wheels and now hope it doesn't snow in April!

it might happen, in that case stay cool and keep the Z in the garage, spring snow always melt fast.

Lovely day in SC....my husband and I are at the beach. The bikes (as in bicycles) came along so the ride over was in the Prius. Once we got here we both were wishing we had the Z4! Glad others are now getting out and enjoying their cars!
