I assume the cold air has something do with it.

Snap, Crackle and indeed Pop...

Been out in mine again today, it loves this weather.It was my intention to get a few jobs done on it this week while I'm off but they'll have to wait, its just too much fun driving it.Mind you I need to get some jobs done soon or it could end up Snap, Crackle and Pop.

Me too, there's something very special about driving roof-off on a crisp morning. Like you I was intending to do a few jobs over the holidays but haven't started any of them yet. One balljoint, one steering column bearing and some scraping and hammeriting awaits - but driving is just too tempting!
