Well, since you asked...

Move. Failing that, keep a good coat of wax on the car at all times, and be sure to wash it regularly. Salt is an awful thing, I can't believe how east coast cars look.

Drive it! Enjoy your car. That's why I bought it and drive it every day around Buffalo. Gotta get snow tires though. It's great and I haven't seen any other 8's on the road in months. People are so uptight about keeping their cars mint that they miss out on driving it. If it needs some paint or whatever a little earlier in its life, so be it. At least I'll have enjoyed it.
