Nope, its a daily driver. Only had a couple days where I couldn't drive it during the freak snow storm last year...but that was deep/fresh snow. However, I only drive around Downtown Vancouver.

i drive mine daily during winter..
nothing like canada here, but i do have a beater for snow days..
95 camry w 176k miles.. driver door won't open, car doesn't start sometimes for no reason, most of the bulbs on center console and dashboard are out, exhaust manifold has a hole, engline leaks oil, intake tube is cracked in half, brake and reverse light comes on and off, high beam doesn't work, more list i could go on and on.... but the car is still running, and gets me from point A to B..

Nothing wrong with putting the GS in the garage if you have a beater. But don't get carried away. Not driving your GS because its snowing and messy out is one thing but not driving you GS because it is just cold is a little crazy to me. Just my opinion.
I daily drive mine, unless it snows.

i could drive my GS in the snow and ice, i just choose not to. is that really wrong?

I am new to GS site; current LS 430 owner. I want to explore test driving and buying a GS 460. I was told by 2 local dealers (San Diego) that they have NO inventory and only GS 460's they will see are when a customer orders. That would be fine, but how do I "play" before I decide? What have you found or heard. As a LS owner this was and is not a problem. k
I heard the 450h was special order only, wasn't aware of the 460 as well.
