Re: My new Retta!
I just miss the power. Although this week I did plow through some 16" deep snow with the truck. That is fun.3X00-Modified wrote:I don't... Traction is nice.woody90gtz wrote:I miss driving a Beretta in the winter.

Re: My new Retta!
OT:
Traction? Check.
AWD? Check.
Power? Check.
Uhm, yeah, I think Jon and I are good lol.
Back on topic:
Car looks decent; black w/ red interior? From what I remember, a stock Z26 handles winters fairly well... I was able to go up hills that 4WD trucks couldn't go up. Then I started to tinker with it and it hasn't seen a winter since.

Re: My new Retta!
I changed mine to black from the red because I hated it, but it's tough to beat a Z26 in the snow. Those 4t-sleezy-Es have enough weight for good traction! I had a studded snows at all 4 corners and never got stuck once.

Re: My new Retta!
I have never had a problem driving a Z in winter. (i would love an AWD, or a pickup tho) But ive had two people smash my Cayenne in the last two weeks. The front end is a fricken mess.
Studded winter tires ftw haha.
