Winter Storage

I just purchased a 2011 E92 M3, I live in upstate new york and I want to store the car for winter. What does everyone do? I was planning on:

1. Battery Tender - I heard the cigarette lighter is an active switch and you can plug the BMW tender into it and it will keep the battery charged. Any thoughts?

2. Gas Preserver

3. Change oil before storage

4. Keep in neutral with parking break off - I have 6MT, will stabilize with blocks to prevent roll. Any problem keeping it in gear?

5. Will not start the car - Nobody gave a reason but multiple threads talk about not starting the car. Any thought?

Thanks!
