I drove mine today through 2 inches. I didn't like it at all but I don't have a DD...that's changing in a week or two though sadly not quick enough. People really just need to be more careful. My buddy had some guy in an STI go flying by him at 60-80 in the snow and about a mile down the road that STI was on its roof..

It's not really a big deal if you have the proper tires and drive carefully. Snow was pretty much melted by the time I drove my Z home yesterday.

That guy in the STI is an idiot.

I drove my STI at around 60-80 yesterday, and it did just fine

Depending on the conditions that is possible and not too dangerous but this was around 1-2 o clock there was a flat two inches of snow that wasn't even really driven on. There wasn't a way to be safe about it.
