911 TTS Cabrio Winter Tips for a Newbie
When I broke my left ankle mine sat from august to december with only one or two drives. It was just fine, a little dusty on the outside and once I had fresh gas and oil in it it felt like new, although I couldn't tell a difference even before those things.
Sounds like you will get out for a drive on a nice dry day so I really wouldn't worry too much, especially since its such a new car.

If you do take it out for a drive around the block, I strongly suggest you drive it longer than around the block. You should bring it up to operating temps, oil and water, and then drive it for at least a half hour or more. Once you start the car, moisture builds up inside the engine, it usually takes thirty to fifty minutes to evaporate the moisture. If you do not get the moisture out it will corrode the inside of the engine.
Once you prepare the car for storage, it is best to not start it or drive it unless you can drive it as stated above.
I also recommend you put a few large size desiccant packs inside to reduce moisture.
Remember, if you stop your liability insurance call your salesman and tell him to reinstate it for the drive.

Before putting my boat away I do my annual oil change, according to my mechanic the old oil holds more moisture and contaminants and left sitting will lead to excess corrosion over the winter. I do this whether the boat needs one based on hours or not.
