Not really. Plenty of sports cars are awesome in the snow, especially the ones with the engine in the back.

I have to argue that a bit. As you get further from the city, the suburbs don't have the man power to clean roads right away. I often found it can take up to 6-8 hours for them to clean side streets. Whats the point of having clean main roads if I can't get out of my driveway (has happened to me). However, that will only happen at most 2-3 times per year. so In general I agree with you

I know Chicago gets pretty rough, but even the suburbs get much better care than the frozen wasteland of ND

Disclaimer: I haven't been to minot in years so my knowledge is neither recent nor fresh. I recall it being softpack on many of the roads, contrary to places like MN where you can just drive on hardpack.

Very excited about the new stang. Makes me wonder how the next camaro will turn out since I'm a bow tie guy at heart.

Same. I don't think ill wait 2 years to trade in the stang tho. I'm hoping the Z is either garbage or blows the doors off the stang. Cause I don't wanna be up in the air about 2 cars again lol

Currnent z can't blow the doors off the current stang. I don't see the next one hanging with the new stang either.

Of course, when the 370 came out in 2009, it blew the stang away. It all depends on development and how far ahead they were.

I personally think the new mustang is boring/disappointment. The new WRX was also boring. New camaro is still too big. All this just makes my decision of my next purchase that much easier....so far its either the new Z, slightly used Vette or new mx5 (yet to be released) ??? Decisions, decisions???
