BTW, I have 03 Acuta CL-S, but I hate driving it in snow. Think its kinda too heavy to use in snow. I'm thinking to buy real cheap-old civics like EG. What do you guys think?

In VA? Stick snows tires on and go for it.
If you want to preserve the shiny sheet metal on the Z get a nice winter beater like an old Subaru, Sentra etc.

I have a 2010 Nissan Frontier SE V6 4x4 King Cab for winter and non-Z driving.
I also have a 2005 Honda Civic LX Sedan that the wife drives, and a 2006 Honda VTX1300c that I ride when the weather is nice and I don't want to "risk" the Z getting dinged up...a bit OCD, but, come July, I'm going on a roadtrip with the Z to Michigan (I didn't go (at all) last year when I was considering the Z) - and once it comes back, it won't be "new" enough any more for me to fret over as much, so I'll probably drive it more - lol... By then I'll have had it a year as well - which helps. This is the most expensive movable object I own...but 3/4 of what it costs, I have in music equipment and that stuff I care about, but don't freak out over as much - lol... |

Range Rover...only way to go in the crazy Omaha snow haha. But I was also debating throwing some snow tires on it for the lighter snow we have most of the winter (or longer drives)...but it will most likely be in hibernation
