Default Snow fun:)

I finally got to have some fun on Saturday morning - the pics below show what I woke up to find (first pic), and then the second was on the way home from Dunkin Donuts for coffee - for whatever reason, out of the blue we got near-whiteout conditions for a good 20 minutes. That was all it took - I dropped the coffee off at home, and went back out for a little fun. This car rocks in the snow heheh - oversteer on demand, and it comes right back in line when you want it to - I had it at least at45 degrees of tail-out heading up my (deserted) street at about 30 mph, whenever I wanted to, and when it was time to tuck the tail back in, a wrist flick was all it took and it was back in line and I looked like a decent citizen again

This car really is fun in the snow - now I find myself on Weather Underground about 3 times a day, praying for snow forecasts Too bad the colleges are back in session - they've got some great, wide-open parking lots that would be a LOT of fun for some action shots/videos.

Sounds like fun!

I got to hang it out a few times yesterday, we finally got some snow in Ohio.

Drove that thing like a rally car driver, I felt like Sebastion Loeb for a minute (until I almost creamed someones mailbox!)

Mine slides around a little too much though, I have 235-45-17's on there, and they just slide a lot more than is good for the snow. Of course if there's more than an inch or two I hop in my 4x4 anyway, so I just leave on all year round. Makes for some good Rally style driving in the snow though!

Yea upstate ny really got pounded. Coming from westchester(nyc area) to syracuse area is like crossing continents. I have the same problem with my 235/45 17"s they just spin unless you really go slow, but its also fun to get the whole car sideways and bring it back.
