I know the finish of the car might do better if not outside all the time, but with modern finishes, there is not a huge difference. My option was to use a storage place - outside storage was cheap but why not park free in the cul de sac. Inside storage existed, but that depends on your budget. Snowbirds probably have the budget to afford it, depending.
I would bet that the homeowners on the cul de sac loved looking at your car for 3 months parked in front of their homes.
