Probably not. I would just take it for a minimum 20 minute drive to get the battery charged back up. This time of year my Coupe regularly sits for 3 to 4 weeks without moving. It always starts after sitting but I always take it for a nice long ride before turning it off again. If it sits for much longer than a month I put the battery tender on it.

These cars require a battery tender to be connected if the car sits awhile. I always keep mine plugged in if its sitting longer than 3 days.

The electrics draw down the battery when parked.
