Amen to that... *Kind of funny I'm responding to this statement today, as it's 24 degrees and icey =)

OP glad you enjoyed the snow day. I guess the rumors were all wrong, your z car did not melt & you appear to be none the worse for the snow on your car.

Weird. I was just discussing this with one of my suppliers today. She is also in OK City and was saying how cold it was but you never get snow. I told her it was snowing here and she got all jealous. LOL...

Man do I remember that crap!! This little bout of ice we just got was fun too, at least we didn't have any major power outages this time.

On this subject I was really impressed with how the Z got around on all the ice we just got. I drove on it every day for the last 4 days and did not really have any problems.

I just cleared room in my garage tonight, what a ***** it was! I was pulling in and hit my motorcycle BUT it was only the license plate tapping the bike stand so no damage to the car or bike.

It's a pretty damn tight fit, I plan to stuff the car in there before big snow storms because my condo has all these rules about parking and I'd rather not play "musical cars" with my Z in the snow. So I feel a hell of a lot better with the Z in the garage with some heavy snow on the way, what a relief but it was a massive pain in the *** to clear the garage and fit it there with the bike.

SNOW IN OREGON!!! Even in the Valley.... Here's what my Z thought of the weather...





The RE050's don't do ANYTHING in snow. I had to put on the chains to get out of my driveway. It sits in the garage at night, so no snow build up on top. Makes me kinda sick to think of what all the serious temperature changes do to the paint having snow sitting on it :-/ I would leave it in the garage all winter, but I've yet to reach the point where I can afford two cars. Some day.....
