I miss good driving weather so much. I'm not trying to say that you cant have fun driving in this east coast winter but I miss fall, spring, and summer driving weather. Windows down, top down, t-tops out, sunroof open, sunglasses on, whatever it may be I miss it. I'm missing half of the driving experience every day hearing the car and everyone else's car and taking out a car just for a drive road exploring.
Heres a picture from the fall behind the wheel of a '74 MGB midget. Slow car, yes. Fun car, Yes. Out exploring all of the curvy roads around.

I am also in the northeast and I feel your pain. It hit 50 up here one day and I rolled the windows down and everything just felt right. I am counting the days until good driving weather is back.

Pick a sunny day, bundle up, and drop the windows with the heater cranked. It's still cold, but it's sometimes enough to hold you over until better days arrive. I try to do it once a month if I can find a day above about 20 degrees and the sun is actually out.

Its also very hard to work on your car without being miserable in this weather. This winter is just lasting way too long. It's starting to really get to me.

I usually buy parts during the year and let my tuner do the installs over the winter, but this year I thought the mods were simple enough that I could do them myself. The weather has been so bad, the car's been in pieces since November. Now I'm so bummed about the weather, I can't get motivated to do any work on the one day a week warm enough to get out there to it.
