I guess a 49 second run time and a comical ending tune isn't enough to get across to people that this was a joke. In seriousness, just about any car can get around town with proper tires and a sensible driver. Y'all stay safe out there.

I drive my 370z in snow in Ontario with no issues at all

😂 I saw the length of video and just chuckled....

Problems with living in Canada and owning a Z. Can only hope for good weather in the next 3 weeks to finally take it out of storage!

I live in Chicago. The first year I had my 2016 Nismo, I either spun like crazy while doing 5 mph or lost all traction while doing simple turns. The problem is that summer speed tires turn into bowling balls at freezing temps. I now run Michelin Pilot A/3 (all season tires) and have no issues in the summer or winter.

On a completely different issue, where you ever able to do anything about the fluttering noise at low RMPs? I am doing my install next month (the 15th) and any suggestions would be welcomed.

we’re you in the city? how was the ride height with roads that weren’t completely clear?

@@bornchrome I only drove only completely cleared streets. That was even before I lowered the suspension. On clear roads, I still had to deal with ice freezing my summer tires. In the winter, I mainly drive from Oak Park (I actually live in a suburb of Chicago) to downtown Chicago via 290 West. The interstate is usually good and warm from all of the traffic, but the surface streets were rough on the Z.

@Brian Jackson do u still have the z? I'm in a chicago suburb as well and fell in love with the car but unsure of how it will do in winter here. Whats been your overall experience with winter tires and driving it?

@@c0lin813 I live in Oak Park and still have the Z. It's currently down (I blew my engine) awaiting a built engine that was supposed to ready last week. I am a huge fan of the Michelin a/s 3+. With and without boost, the car did well with these tires. There is an update - the Michelin a/s 4, which comes as standard issue for the new Corvettes. If you are running summer tires, it's gonna be rough once this excellent weather goes way to negative 5 temps.

I come here as a witness to tell you all the new 400z most definitely will struggle in 2 inches of snow 💀

No problems here in Iowa. We have quite a bit of snow and I drive around on it just fine. Don't even have winter tires.

The honest answer is, hell no. Ive put snow tires on for Z customers and I think they're insane to even attempt it.

I didn’t see the length of the video and was genuinely excited to see how it did but I wasn’t disappointed with this either lol

I did this once, I had to back halfway down my block and drive up my driveway to get back in.

So first question is tires.... If you don't have snow tires or all-season tires. Don't even bother going out. I put all-season on my Z and have driven two winters with it in Iowa.

I use the exhaust as thrusters to hover over teslas in zero friction environments

I have been debating switching to a tomei for this reason. The single exit thrust dynamics are just what you need to get by in these trying times.

Careful there, the 45° angle of the single exhaust means you’ll be at a constant dorifto position while hovering...

I live in the northeast and daily my z in the snow with summer tires for 4 years now no issues. unless the snow was over a couple inches.

I've been dailying it for over a year now so yes, absolutely! It is a heavy clutch though, and the engagement is a bit more abrupt but definitely manageable.

Mine would be a snowplow.

I'm planning on getting a first gen g35 sedan and I personally prefer the rwd version. Do you think it would be ok for an all season car? I live in Vermont as well!

Sooo that’s a no ?

Nope. Mine just spins

I can't drive on the snow at all. Aparently my motor is randomly locked up. Went to start it one morning and the crank pully won't budge. Wtf I drive my z like a granny and my friends beat the shit out of there's and it still drives
