Just wondering, how do the 240/60/80 Z's handle in the snow? is it a stupid idea to even try?

Guess it's just that with snow comes salt, then rust, then a new car... Buy a beater for winter driving they all handle great enough and are disposable

hahahaha disposable... good word for em

DON'T DO IT. The road salt will eat up your Z. If you love your Z, you will Park it for winter.

I live in MN. and I usually have to tuck my little one away in mid Oct. before the sh!t flies. Depressing time of year for me :disappoin :disappoin

So sad for you folks back there. No road salt used in Oregon...

You can do it, but they really weren't meant to be driven in it. It's pretty much like driving any RWD car without ABS that doesn't weigh very much in the snow. I did it because I had no other vehicle and it is very doable, you just have to give yourself and those around you a lot of space.

i would (and did) get a beater for the winter. a while ago i had a little honda crx for a beater and even being fwd that thing was a pain in the snow/icy roads always sliding around and such. locking up the brakes mid turn on ice and slaming into a curb is not fun either. i believe the z is a like 2-300lbs lighter than a crx and rwd, dont know that i would risk that in bad weather conditions. i guess it can be done and if you must i would suggest that you be real careful and take it to one of those hands free washers where you can use the pressure washer and spray down the underbody and fenderwells often to try and keep the rust away. good luck man.
