I’m sorry, but that’s really overkill.

Briefcase?

Seriously, though, all of that. Driving a Miata in winter is fine. Getting in and out of a closed up Miata is enough of a pain when wearing cargo shorts and a t shirt. It’s pretty f’ing annoying when dressed for a New England winter day. Even with a skullcap you’re not taking off and leaving the briefcase in 1975.
