Putting the Z to bed for the winter :(

The Z had winter set installed this past Friday. Today is the first time my wife drove it to work on that set.

Going to go buy a 400$ winter P.O.S. tomorrow so I can put the Z to bed. xD

Hopefully it can last all winter haha.

The problem with buying a cheap beater for the winter is that is when you really need something reliable. Who wants to be stranded out in the cold. I got lucky...my folks hardly ever drive in the winter so I use their Toyota for my winter car.

I agree, but it's a gamble my wallet must take, that or attempt to drive my Z in the North East Ohio snow... on sport tires... O.O''

Don't worry. I found a 2003 Mazda protege with 180k miles. It is super rusty but runs like a champ. There have already been some really cold mornings and it has fired up right away. I always reccomend getting a Honda, Mazda, Toyota or something similar
