Poor BC RX-8

I saw this poor kitted RX-8 on my way to work this morning in BC. I don't think they were ready for this much snow

Not me....

The 8 stays warm and dry when there's salt on the roads. Got the snow tires on the Subaru yesterday.

Pffffff, I was in a Kia Rondo. That thing is a snow champion! Now I'm sitting at the airport waiting for my heavily delayed flight to take off so I can go back to Toronto to dig by RX-8 out of 10cm of snow in park and fly at 1AM

I didn't see any 8's in Vancouver the whole past week I was there.

Saw lots of soft-topped Miatae though, lol.

Poor Vancouverites. Saw at least 6 people slide through smaller intersections on separate occasions, kinda ridiculous.

you call that a lot of snow? The 8 is sooooooo much fun in the snow, if you have winter tires... just turn off the Traction Control and go nuts. Enjoy the winter wonderland!!!!

Mine's still buried under some snow =[. They never plowed or salted the street I live on so it's kinda impossible to get out. Been driving/riding in the Santa Fe >_<. It's got enough clearance to get over thos snow piles.. I miss driving my Rx-8!!

I saw pics of one of my friends trying to dig his Corvette out of the snow in Vancouver. It made me laugh.
