Got up this morning to a brisk 12 degrees outside. My car loved it. I swear, my car felt like it had so much more power. And the throttle response was crisp and it pulled sooo hard going into work. I love winter!!!!

 

Sure the car pulls harder in cold weather than 90+ temps, but give me some 50-60 degree temps any day

I don't like it when it's so cold that my hands hurt.

 

winter sucks *****!

 

I've found my car to be the quickest in 40-50 degree weather vs extreme cold like 10-20 degrees. My motor feels harsh when the weather is very cold and dry. 45 and slightly humid and my car is very happy.

Yeah the winters may be awsome for the car but I'd rather be in Summertime already.. It sucks working on the car in 9 degree weather..

 

its so cold i need some sort of layer between me and the ebrake to put it down cause its FROZEN solid.

 

I love the cold air only for that reason. It's been cold as a b***h up here (getting to -20 degrees).

 

I hate winter!!!!! My motor seems to like it...but my tranny doesnt . For some reason my tranny likes it best when its real humid...?

in general car runs better when it's cold....but no winter for me...rather have spring in the 50-60....perfect weather for anything....too cold during winter to fix your car...

 

same here...especially when you wanna do something to the car. like install MODS and chit, ya know?

and plus at my work it really sucks because I couldn't feel my feeet last night.

 

I feel your pain! It was -15 this morning! I could hardly breathe when I walked outside...

 

Yea, the car may perform better in the cold I guess, but since we seem to get complementary little tiny snows every 3 days along with the -10 temps, I don't get to enjoy it.

Really at this point, with no snow, I still take it easy on the roads. Only takes one patch of ice/snow/gravel to turn a spirited run into a disaster.

 

cold air is great....ice sucks

 

whatever you do, try not to take any 90 degree turns when its cold out

your tires will still be cold, three people already lost their new Zs cuz they were stupid. dont let that happen to you.



anyways. its 75 degrees here. :P


what snow?!

 

Anyone else with a 5speed feel like there shifter is sliding through thick sludge and not smooth as it should be when its cold out?

it was 25 degrees today with a wind chill of 10, and i played golf ... what cold

 

i hate winter, here in IL. we have had a high of 7 degrees the last week, thats why am going to california

 

 

Where I live right now the outside temp is -32 and the wind chill is -45,,,, I can hardly stand it anymore Damn Canada

 

I have a 5-spd in MN and I cant agree more. I will be looking forward to getting back the performance in more moderate temps.

do you use more gas in the winter?

 

yes you do. it takes a lot of gas to get your car nice and warmed up in the winter, i calculated like 17-19 miles to the gallon, and that about 4 less than what i get in the summer

 

Are you Montreal?

In TO, its around -30 with windchill. Its too damn cold for me, especially since I have to walk outside (no car for me during school!)!

And yeah, I do notice the gear shifter being a ***** in the cold, even after I put in Amsoil syn tranny oil. It hates 2nd and 3rd gear, always grinds unless I give it some throttle while shifting it into place.

 

I here you

It was 80 today and not a cloud in the sky. Jesus, I can't wait for winter to be over. I'm so tired of perfect wash and wax weather
