IMO these Porsche owners who don't want their "baby" to get wet are suffering from the delusion that their car is some sort of jewel that should be protected from raindrops and snowflakes. It's not a jewel, it's a workhorse that was meant to be DRIVEN, and driven hard, in all types of weather (unless you have a cab or speedster). The worst thing you can possibly do to an old car is let it sit. It is always its best when driven often.
It's just a car, and Porsches were made for ALL weather. I might not drive a $200,000 Lambo in the snow but we're talking about old cars that cost us less than most 2-year-old minivans. Our cars should be used year round, not "protected" in the garage.
My 86 Carrera is the only car I own. It's my daily driver, my track car, and my snow car. It's almost as much fun in the snow as it is on a dry road.
