How do you like the BRZ? Any experience with it in snow?

FRS. Not mine, the kid's. He likes it a lot, especially since he's done some work on it.

Amazingly underpowered stock (which he knew when he bought it), he threw an Edelbrock supercharger on it. THEN he tuned it to run E85. Unless he decides to allow me, I can no longer hang with him in the Boxster. Takes it to the local road course (Nelson Ledges), has a good time with it, though he puts the brakes to the test there on a regular basis. Also wants to get more rubber in the back—breaks loose VERY easily if he's into the accelerator on any kind of curve. In a couple weeks he's going give Mid-Ohio a try for the first time.

Like me and the Boxster, he doesn't drive it once the snowflakes fly. Even if he was so inclined, it would be insanely hard to keep the front in front of the back in the snow
