Default Parking car outside (winter) tips?

Gonna have to continue parking the car outiside on the driveway (rents house) through the winter and am curious if there are any precautions i should take since it's going to be getting pretty cold. it never snows in my area but it gets down to about low 30s. my car will probably start to idle like crap since its so cold but will everything be fine or are there any parts that are sensitive and can freeze?

also not sure if this is in the right forum!

Should be fine. I'm guessing you're not very north of low 30's is the most of it. Sounds like winter here and I've never had a problem.

If your door freezes shut don't yank on the handle to try and get it open. Thats how the door skins rip off these cars.
