I was just curious to see how long some people wait (or how early) to bring their Solstices out of storage. I plan to bring mine out in 11 days (it is going to be tough as this is my spring break and the weather in the Tri-City area has been absolutely fantastic). I took a quick spin in it today; I was so happy and excited to be driving it again I was actually quivering a little.

Mine is coming out tomorrow. Took the day off, planning to install all the mods. It will be in the 50's but rain, I just want to get some mods done before this Saturday.
When the snow melts off my driveway in front of the garage. It gets no sun there, so it takes awhile. With this warm weather, I hope it melts soon. I have a few things I want to do that I can't do in the garage.

Came out last week for a Friday work commute , then put the good wheels on yesterday and stored the crappy Eagle F1 "super slicks" until next winter.
Amazing how little grip they have at 40 degrees . Also amazing, no flats spots after 4 months of storage...and IMOP, that is what they are worth - decent winter storage tires.
About 125 miles driven so far in 2010.

Sun dried out the roads here in SE Mich so the Black Pearl came out of garage on Saturday (Mar 6th). Drove Sat/Sun/today with top down, logged about 200 miles. Likely take to work again tomorrow, but with the rain moving in tomorrow night and creating a salt spray environment next few days will be back in semi-storage. Also got out cycling over the weekend, and down to the boat club ... so I have a serious case of SPRING FEVER !
