I'm not the only one at work here!! We all huddle deep in the parking lot...Mustang Cobra (terminator), BMW M, and my poor Z...all out there freezing to death!!


crappy cell pic below...

 

It's pretty funny that the only cars out there are sports cars. Where are the weenies with their invincible 4-wheel drives? My dad always said, "A poor carpenter always blames his tools." It's supposed to be about 5 here in a couple of days, which means you'll probably be freezing your bums in negative numbers. Come onnnnnn Spring!

 

I don't have to worry about that here in austin texas, lol. Today was in the 70's. You might want to reconsider where you live if you don't like cold weather. I know for sure that i don't. I use to live in Newjersey and i just hated it. Jersey is boring as hell.

 

Yeah. But I'm in Southern Indiana. It'll be 5 in a couple of days, then 80 2 days later. Keeps you guessing.

 

haha, true enough...if you don't like the weather in indiana...wait 20 minutes!!!

There are a bunch of other cars at work...but they all huddle up by the door cuz it's too cold...cracks me up...the same people park those same cars out by ours in the summer b/c "they care about door dings"...well, apparently door dings don't occur in the winter

 

Same crap up here in Elkhart. Snowing right now and we're suppose to get up to 9" of lake effect. I have Michelin X-ice on the Z and it's simply a blast to drive in the winter.

 

It's pretty cold here this week, though the cold doesn't really bother me. When I was younger we used to get a lot more snow than in the last number of years. I daily drive the Z and haven't really had a problem this year yet. Even drove the other night when we had a couple inches on the ground... that was fun

I had a 2000 Celica GT-S prior to the Z. I swear, even with quality tires on the Celica... the Z is still slightly better than the Celica. Both cars suck in the snow though (though the Z is more fun, RWD FTW)

 

+1 on the Celica. I had one with good all weather tires and it was a pain in the behind when trying to stop. The ABS actually CAUSED me to break traction. I had to do a sideways hockey-stop to keep from hitting a guy one time. I have 0 problems in the Z.

 

I did the same thing. Was going down a very very slight snow covered decline. I couldn't slow the damn thing down at all. Ended up turning it sideways and slowed/stopped within inches of him. This is the first winter season with the Z but the few times I've been out, it seemed to handle itself pretty well.

 

I went to work this morning and it was only 4 degrees

 

when I got up this morning, my weatherbug read -19... it has now warmed up to a blistering -15. So yes, I am battling the winter weather

 

Close to -25 with windchill here in Chicago. I love living right of Lake Michigan and the lake effect winds

 

...yep, battling those 75 degrees, down here...terrible!

i hate you j.arnoldo!! haha...it's single digits right now to dip into the negatives tonight.

I got stuck a couple times on the way home yesterday...it was strictly clearance issues...nismo v2 w/ ings sides on a 1" drop...doesn't take much snow to cause me to be dragging through the neighborhoods!!!

 

from that pic it looks like the snow won the battle, your jsut parked :P..

FL is nice and warm...well around 55 today, so not as warm as usual

 

The Z is pretty much undrivable here this time a year thats why i got a beater. Roads and weather here are garbage.

Passed a brand new Z on the side of the road with his hazzards on the other day. Couldnt make it up a small hill....actually i wouldnt even call it a hill, just a slight incline in the road.


My Z is hybernating..

It's going get to upper 60's to low 70's today in the Bay Area (Ca). I think I'll get my Z washed and waxed.

 

like brick-z said its like almost -25 windchill and will be -8for a high temp today....wtf!!

 

lake affect actually brings warmer air during the winter months, and colder air iin the summer.

and milwaukee is -30 windchill this morning lol. **** = frozen
