    i got stuck in a freak snowstorm once on es100s in my e30, ha. it was brutal, the car felt like it was on ice skates. :D
    Thanks! They feel like ice skates in the dry on my car. I am convinced they are the worst tires ever produced.

    But seriously, that car looks amazing. Can't wait for progress on the ITB's (is that still in the works?)

    And thank you, for the black ducts, is lip, and is spoiler. That's how I had it on my alpine and i think it looks great.
    Well I was going for an undisturbed snow + e30 type picture. But I ended up shoveling (2x4-ing actually) to get the car back inside. ITB's are still a go, go sidetracked putting together a dd e28 though.

    nice looking car though, you guys don't often get snow so I'd just leave it parked in the garage.
    Yes they are awful, I might as well have been on power wheels tires. E30 is def staying in the garage now

    Lol yes, i would have to agree. I think ill look into going FI so I can get around next time it snows

    Yep - we do live right near each other. I live right off the roundabout between West Sandtown and Villa Rica. Do you daily the e30 or would I see you in another DD?
    Ok yeah I've seen you mostly around that area. I used to daily a really low black e34 but now I'm usually in a gold slightly lifted land rover with metal bumpers.. my roommate has a black e39 m5, prob a bit more noticeable.

      I love your stance, those Azevs look incredible. What are the specs on your suspension?

        Good god you have a gorgeous car.


        I took the vert out lateee last night when there was about 6 inches. Blizzaks FTW!!! A Cop saw me and was about to come after me... Haha. That car is SO much fun to drive in the snow. Not as fun as the Subaru but a close second!

            This is the reason why I didn't even try to go out in the E30. The 4Runner however had a great time in the snow.

            Huff that pic of your car under the snow makes me sad.

                          i'm sure you'd be fine out there with some snow tires on it. looks good stranded, which is a plus.

                            We got a solid 7" and didn't have a problem.

                            Except I drive a bone stock 318 with a volvo lip.

                              We got 6" here, I've been driving a 260k mile volvo station wagon since Monday with zero problems. I could probably have driven the e30 if I really needed to but didn't feel like raising it up, taking off the lip, getting it dirty... etc. I am definitely missing driving it though

                                Wow! How crazy! I was in US a couple of weeks ago. I landed in Orlando and drive a car all the way up to NYC, I can say that NYC was crazy! What a lot of snow! I almost crash on North Carolina because there was thin ice on the street.

                                When we went thru Atlanta it was still "hot", that was like on the 1st of Jan.
