Kira, don't be one of those guys who pay for a car and leave it parked in garage. It's an amazing car but not a classic or even that expensive. People are buying this thing for close 20k now(not new of course)
Couldn't agree more. I already put over 2k miles on mine in a little over one month of ownership. I just enjoy driving her. I don't even drive to work nor work. Lol

I'm not encouraging illegal behaviour! It's good to know how a car behaves in snow/ice if you'll be driving it in those conditions.

when it's dry you can have a lot of fun!
:iagree: VDC=off unless raining

You have 3 or 4 inches of ground clearance up front. More snow than that, or lumps, or worse yet...slush, and your air dam is at risk.

Yup, you're not buying a Jeep

True. Although my wife's Murano is no jeep either, but is actually pretty competent as a Minnesota winter vehicle. Although drivable in some winter conditions, the Z is pretty low on the Jeep scale.

I drove it all winter in Toronto with 19" lm-60's no problem at all.

I wintered my Z for 1 year (luckily it was the one with no snow) then said fk it and bought a beater. I actually prefer it this way so I can do whatever the hell I want in the winter without worrying and then every spring it is like driving a brand new car.

That aside, with some proper winter tires it drives fine in light snow as long as you keep your foot out of it.

It is not that you can't it's just why the fück would you want to? If you like the feeling of a puckering a$$hole the entire time you are on the road then sure risk it……but once you start modding/seeing the rust you may have a change of heart.

Also downtown Toronto doesn't even get snow like we do in SW Ontario so you guys can ┌П┐(•_•)┌П┐

Once you lower the car I think wintering is also next to impossible if you have any or expect any accumulation……

Off topic: no but certain ones will dust a non boosted Z……….buddy has a SRT8 Cherokee and it is much faster then us he has done a few things to it and it has to be well over 500whp by now…..:shakes head:

Didn't say it couldn't be done. Just said it's not fun to drive in the winter and significantly sucks as a winter vehicle in snowy climates.

On a side note, if anyone wants to but stock 18s with lm60 winter tires used for 5 months let me know.

I think i'll be going with a winter beater unless there is no snow on the ground....

I just bought my new 2014 370z this past saturday! Extremely excited!

I paid 49 400 for gun metallic, auto matic, navi and sport package with anti rust protection. (After tax and freight)

Also got free BBQ unit (200 value) and 5 free oil changes from dealer.
