Man, we just got our first actual snow today, and I love the J30 in the snow, so much. I just got back from a good 2hrs of trying to go up the steepest hills, etc I could find.

RWD is a ton of fun if you know what your doing, I wouldn't trade it for anything!

Oh yeah, so I'm on the freeway doing about 40 (speed limit) and this guy in an SUV is on my ***, he floors it to pass me, fishtails one way, the other way, loses control and smashes into a guard rail!

Proves him right lol

Anyone else having fun in the snow with the J30?

Yeah it's special. We have got a lot of snow here in Toronto yesterday and today. And they were not fast enough to clear the streets so it was pretty messy. It's fun driving though but it's fun when there are no other cars around. Some people just do not adjust their driving to the snow conditions and this is where it's dangerous. One lady turned almost in front of me and then she was following another car very very close something like only 3 feet. I wonder how she managed not to hit it

I prefer dounuts myself.

Chicago had 12 inches total snow in the last 3 days, since I knew how fun yet dangerous it is in the snowy conditions I drive a Nissan Murano in the snow. Let me tell you, one time driving home from a friend’s how I had to get up this hill on a fairly main street that has not been plowed. I also had a huge SUV on my tail like it was my fault my tires were not gripping. Well, this hill not only was high, but tilted right so whenever I pressed the gas my tail end went to the left but my front stayed the same. As my rear wheels went left they hit the curb and I traveled 2 more feet. Had to do this about 20 times before I reached the light. Then he passed me. But yeah, it's embarrassing when you rely on hitting the curb to get up a snowy hill. Without that curb, I would have been stuck.

Anyway, I have more stories I may share later. But yeah RWD rocks!
