i know, i know.... the idea of taking a 330hp car out in a snow storm isn;t the brightest.... but i was going stir-crazy sitting indoors. going out to diner tonight, my buddy with a jeep is picking us up.

You're in for a big dump in Richmond in the next 24 hours. Hoping for a lot of it in Whistler to cover the rocks that are currently wrecking my new skis!

I daily drive my M Coupe in the winter, awesome winter car. Easier to drive with the traction control off, though.. it's far too intrusive.
