DO you drive your Turbo in the snow?

The cars can handle it, its been proven over and over my 1000's of them that have survived. Its just that some owners are not comfortable...and thats cool, we all value things differently.
as an aside, though, I have seen far more porsche posters and advertisements with cars driving in the snow than I have for any other "super car" maker...

Now if i had a stock porsche turbo i guess i could, but still, besides the worrying or fear because i dont get scared in ANY car and will manhandle them all, its not just worth it to me unless im going out strictly to mess around in the snow. Its hard to explain, ah well.

You need to ride along with me in the snow........it's a blast.
I'm not "trying" to get there......I'm there, and had fun. Anything up to 6 or 7" I have total confidence.....(and look around me at most with no confidence in what they are driving)....the C4 does handle the deep a bit better.
Do you autocross?......maybe I'm nuts......maybe only someone who enjoys continually recovering from exceeding limets can appreciate

.Thing is, its like in my mindfram do this stuff when its necessary, speed (track) i dont drive wreckless, i also find there is no need for myself to drive in bad weather in a supercar, i get no enjoyment out of it and this is purely if its my only car and im trying to get places in horrible weather. Like i said, i rather just cruise along with comfort in my G35

I've done 4 winters in a bone stock 996TT - I love the feeling of driving in the snow with as I get to improve my skills and also get a better understanding of what the car will do and what it is capable of - again to many of the above posts - it's my preference and I really enjoy the drive
