Is it best to keep my car in the garage?

Which is best for a modern car - always putting the car away in an enclosed garage when not in use, or parking on the driveway exposed to the weather, but where air can circulate over and under the car?

In general, I would say your car is best in a garage but it depends on things like how often you use it, your local climate, the condition of the garage etc.
