Hey guys. First time it has EVER snowed where I live. Pretty neat flying around empty parking lots and rippin the E brake. Well here is a picture of my other car siting in the snow.

Re: Snow in Portland!
seems that several US states (north east in particular) have been getting plenty of snowfall, while up here we've been enjoying rather balmy weather for the season and ALOT of rain.
a cold snap for us is long overdue....first time in ages we had a rather green Christmas.
out of curiosity how does the Mini handle in the snow??

Re: Snow in Portland!
Thats awesome. Wish I could do that. But then again my mx-3 doesnt run and I drive the worst Cavalier on earth right now so I wish for a lot of things...
but like Darren asked, hows the mini in the snow?
