I had a 94 3.4 and drove it in the winter, didn't do too badly. I then had a 96 Z28, and that didn't even do well in the rain, but it was only a summer car. Have fun and be sure to wear light weight shoes, a lead foot and snow don't go together very well. A couplebags of sand in the trunk will help give some weight over the rear wheels too, plus you'll have something totoss under the tires when...I mean if you get stuck!

I just put on some Blizzak winter tires, and have about 80lbs of sand in the hatch for traction. Canadian winters are brutal.

Is it cold enough yet to consider winter? Well, today, I stopped for gas after picking the car up. While the gas pumped in, I took the tops off and put them in the back. Since it was a bit cool, I turned the air conditioning off.

Tomorrow with taking the kids to school, I'll probably wear a jacket.

When it gets really cold, I'll put the tops back in.
