if you haven't driven a Ferrari or a FIERO in the snow, you are missing out.

got back home fom a concert in NYC pretty late only to discover that there was about 4 inches of fresh snow on the ground, no roads plowed. my friends asked if i just would rather have them drop me off at home, but my car was at my friends house, and i just wanted to get it home. They asked over and over if i was sure, and yes, i was.

RWD + snow = the suxor, but RWD + Mid Engine + snow= equals the sexiest beast on the road in the snow. The car handles EXCEPTIONALLY well for RWD, it didn't step out on me at all. Fabulous handing. A lot may just have to do with the fact that I'm confident driving in the snow and I know how to, (thanks Dad) but other than that, if you're gonna have a sports car on the road in the snow, the fiero is a good choice, i must say.

*** AND thanks to my mother, and to James' advice in the frozen door-lock thread, heating my key up was like, an instant fix and instant entry. Amazing.
