poor z's!

 

bah-humbug!

 

i cannot imagine what road salt would do to the undercarige and engine bay of a z!

 

Even though its Pikes Peak White, I was hoping it would never see snow

 

If you have the right tires it does good. I can go through about 4-5" of snow before I start plowing with my front bumper.

 

Why not drive it in the snow? It handles fine with the right tires. It's a 35K mass-production car. I see cars twice as expensive driving in it all the time. Just because it's a sports car doesn't mean it's going to fall apart and loose half its value because you drive it through the winter. It's not like it's an exotic or anything.

 

Nothing really. This is my second winter and with the exception of a few bolts that have rusted you could never tell.

 

apparently Old Man Winter and Mother Nature didn't like the fact i have not contributed to this thread.. they gave me a nice slap in the face this morning

 

Do you drive your FI car in the snow, and with those rims. How does that handle if you do?

I would probably take my car out a little in the winter but I don't have the splash gaurd under the car. Plus I'm missing my inner fender linings. I took them off to work on my wastegate and lost them during my move. I don't think the Z would be that bad in the snow, with the right tires. I used to have a 2 wheel drive truck that had no weight in the rear and got around just fine. I'm sure my Z would be about the same or a little better.

p.s.
If anyone has any inner fender liners they want to get rid of pm me.

 

lol.. no man.. thats what i have a jeep for

 

my Z is my DD all year round in PA .. just got it in Jan which was in the middle of winter heh
