Dude where did you find that pic ??? .... Yes that guy is a retard for driving it up here in Canada in the winter !!! I guess he wants to find out either how well his air bags work when he gets in an accident or when the car starts rusting out from underneith him !! The salt solution they use up here is **** for our cars!!! ( meaning any manufacture`s car`s )
I knew someone that used to drive a new at the time C5Z year round and within 3 years the car was destroyed . Up here they will salt the roads @ freak`n 3am if there is a whisper of snow/freezing rain falling .

^ i agree, here in ohio there are alot of guys that drive z06s and what not all year long, sometimes the weather is crap for 6 months, some people wanna drive what they pay for, even in the dead of winter if the roads are dry and its clear out i like to take the car out,just to keep things movings etc, by no means am i comparing my car to a zr1 but its his car he can drive it where ever he wants

Even the brake rotors aren't metal - they're carbon ceramic on a ZR1.

You act like this is so rare lol. It's not rare and definitely not a first, trust me. Happens here in PA as well - C5 with a Christmas tree last year:


And I saw a C6 stuck back in January during a blizzard:
