Default What have you seen

So last week, when our first REAL snow fell (besides the October storm), I thought I was gonna be the only guy with a RWD car. Boy was I wrong!

Just on my parents street alone is another V6, a GT, and a newer Corvette! All these cars were in their driveways and COVERED in snow. And when I got out to check the mail, the kid who owns the Corvette (my next door neighbour actually), he wiped off his car and backed out and drived away!

Theres also a Camaro on my street. And my buddy is still driving around his '02 Z-28.

So, if your city has snow, what are some cars that you've seen? (Nice-ish cars).

I see a surprising number of Porches etc that are driven all year round, stuff like 911's & Boxters.

It hasn't snowed a lot here yet (Ontario Canada) but I saw a couple guys on MOTORCYCLES yesterday lol they musta been freezing!

Ferrari. Couple of 'em. One's an older Testarossa (the dudes DD) and the other looks like a 360. I had thought it was the same guy, but then I saw them side by side.

A friend of mine has a limited edition (either 05 or 06 IDK)Z06 Vette. I showed her my post and she tried pulling it out of the garage for a test drive in the snow. Car wouldn't go over 10 mph without losing all traction.

Her stepdad was PISSED (he works for the highway dept and its his car)!!!

Whoever bought a kid a Vette needs to be hurt. All it takes to drive in the snow is nice tires & some right-foot finesse....[sm=chairshot.gif]
