Couple of me and my friends figured that none of us had any decent pictures of our cars, so we went around town to shoot some pics. Even met up with a few scoobies later on in the night from the local subaru owner club, and then found a 4-level car park with a snow packed roof that hasn't been plowed all winter long.

cars:

850GLT (mine)
Lexus IS250 AWD (brand new)
Civic
two older subarus
one brand new subaru


Funny thing is, when we were messing around on the snowed-in rooftop (it was around 1-2 feet of snow average, 3-4 in the deep parts), the only car that got stuck was the brand new Lexus IS250 with its fancy AWD and traction control. It's supposed to be 30/70 front/rear when it's gripping, but even when it was losing traction in the snow, it was obvious that something was wonky since only the rears were spinning.



Afterwards...

- one of the subarus spun on a corner trying to do a scandinavian flick
- lexus developed its first curb rash
- lexus owner went insane since the traction control couldn't be turned off, and beeped at any loss of traction
- I wished that I had an awd/rwd
