Wow, surprised you took it out. Just left Denver on Monday right before all the snow hit, annual ski trip with friends and we barely saw any until the last day.

Ah, could not tell what tires were on the car, glad to see a Z driven in the Denver area during winter. I did not see any while I was there this year.

From what I have observed, Zs are pretty rare in Denver. I have only seen 2 other NISMOs on the road and not many other models. This place is a Subaru WRX and Audi R4 town from what I have observed. |

1) Without Blizzaks (or other quality winter tires) a Z would be useless in the snow/ice (they are actually better on ice or very cold snow) 2) I used to deliver pizzas when I was in high school during the winter in both my Mustang and Supra, so I have a lot of experience with rear-wheel drive in the snow 3) Colorado (especially Parker where I live) does a good job of plowing the snow early so clearance isn't too much of an issue (we received 6-8 inches of snow the night before) 4) I work from home, and snow is predictable, so I can prepare and stay in if need be, but I haven't needed to yet in one and a half winters so far Stopping and turning are solid, but getting up-to-speed can be an issue in "potato-salad" snow (a soft, crusty layer on top of a frozen later) but eventually the Blizzaks will bite enough. Hope that helps! |
