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 .

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