    Go Go Blizzard?

    Car is currently covered in 2 inches of snow, and the storm isn't 1/4 way through yet. 11 more inches expected.

    Hope the soft top doesnt cave in

        How does the cabrio hold up in winter? I'm thinking of getting one but people are telling me it's a bad idea for winters.

        Does the car make good enough heat to keep you warm? Does the rear defoster make alot of extra heat (it's an electric heater right?)?

        Anything else I should know?

          It makes enough heat to keep me nice and toasty, but obviously does not hold it in as well as a coupe. After it warms up, its not bad at all.

          Rear window defroster is a fan with a heating element, that blows hot air onto the window. Its not bad at all, except there is no way to actually get the snow off while driving, other than going reeally fast.

                Yeah Id agree with Avi about dusting it off occasionally. That shit adds up.

                Hardtops are NICE though.
