You guys driving this car in snow are nuts. I think if you have money for a 40k car you would want to protect your investment a little and buy a cheap winter beater instead of not only risking being in an accident but also receiving many dents and dings from salt and misc crap from driving in the snow.

You know... there are cheap jeeps for like 2-3k. I drive a 2001 jeep cherokee in the winter months and wouldn't dream of taking the black Z out in this crap!

Two tips --

1. Always remember to keep your right mirror clean!

2. A high-visibility color like BRILLIANT WHITE can help others see and avoid you!

(After the Dec. 20th storm hit the Jersey coast, my Z stayed parked until everything melted off it. That took about two weeks. The Honda Element AWD I bought last summer, visible in the foreground, was on its way to Cape Cod as soon as the storm blew away, and was an absolute delight on the road.
