Default How much does the cold affect your car?

For all of us that have been in the sub-zero or damn close to it in the northeast the past few days how does your car react?

Mine seems pissed off to me, I almost feel bad driving it. I let it warm up and all, but for example my door opened harder last night cause the hinges where frozen or something. It was at least 10 below last night, right now its 3.7 degrees here in Southern NH
