If I had snow tires I would drive my Z in the snow. I drive in all other conditions though, doesn't matter to me.

Its my DD so i drive her everyday. It doesn't snow in Texas..
It is garage kept though. I take great care of my cars so when someone buys
mine in a trade in which i do every 2 1/2 years they get a good car. I'm on pace
to be at about 45,000 miles by then. and it should still have a good trade in value................

I never drive it if there is any chance of snow or ice, or any chance of hail. I will sometimes drive it in light rain if it is already dirty. If it is already clean, sunny days only.

20,500mi, I've had it since July 09

Hey I bought this car to drive it! Snow tires/wheels for winter, works great (and appreciate the LSD). Why put up with boring cars just b/c the weather sucks?

In the real deep stuff, I'll drive my AWD Audi S4 Avant tho.

my Z is my DD and i try not to drive it in the rain if i can help it.... especially if i've washed it recently.

But a lot of that also has to do with living in Miami and that when it rains here it tends to flood also and i dont want to get stuck or come out and find my car with water up to its doors.
