That's not the point...I could prolly limp about and get to my desired destination in my 'Stang. It would be a creaky, chipped, faded. rustyPOS if itwasn't stored during winter. Good luck with your AWD DSM in a few years.

I just mind the winter because I can't get on it without the car going sideways. If I drive normally, the Z28's actually not that bad in the snow. I do feel kind bad putting it through the snow and salt though. It really felt good washing it yesterday. I can't wait for the 50 some degree weather coming up today for us. I think I may just have to take the t-tops out. lol

I know man...I PM'd you about my car and from the mod list I gave you ( the handling stuff notwithstanding) you know it's not some twitchy baddass strip car like a lot of the guys have here, it could be daily driven. But it is, without a doubt a mint fox and they're rare these days. And it wouldn't be if I drove it in the winter.I want that body to be there cosmetically if I'm ever inclined to submit to my fantasies of building a crazy *** street car. For now a mid(to low with DR's)13 car is all she is. But what about next summer? The dough and patience is intact, I just need the body to be there as wellfor when the time comes...[8D]

i bought my DSM this past year, and its been regularly driven in the snow since it was new...i did get the car painted because the paint was faded and the guys son wrecked the right rear. the underside of the car was in good shape for a car that old...

honestly, i rarely drive it in the snow now, and when i do, i only do so when its very cold, and dry...or in heavy snow late and night when there are very few people out and about..i also have a truck and my old k car for the real winter weather...but the AWD is still fun..
