How's ure Civic handle in the winter? --- Pics of my "Boo"

millerman · 05-20-2008, 11:02 PM

Hi all. See attachment for a winter pic of my car, "Boo" --- Yes, the same Boo as in mario kart!! haha don't ask.

so the question is: how did your civic handle in harsh winter conditions?

I was surprised at how well the stock setup was. gripped the snow, and maneuvered well -- never got stuck once in the heavy snowstorm. meanwhile, rwd cars such as bmw's were sliding all over the place while i

passed everyone.

vroom vroom.

civic handled winter just fine, no complaints except it takes forever to scrape the huge windshield!

I won't have my Si until August, but here's my sister's 2004 Civic Coupe LX back in February after 1 night of snowfall :

Don't act like you're not impressed.

I have no idea ha, that's the cool thing about it. You'd think it would collapse at some point.

Thank GOD I don't have to deal with this. :)

lol civic is great in winter! Riding on Nokians, so the grip is pretty awesome! One day it had snowed less than one inch, i had to get to school, it took me about... 30 mins to get down the street ( with my slick hankook summer tires ) took an other 30 mins to get the civic back into the garage, melted the day after and got the winter tires back on!

Overall, i am very pleased with the cars handling in the snow! My avatar's a pic of my car in the snow, all cleaned up with the taillights tinted and all! I kinda like winter too, and here in Montreal, we get a hell of a winter...
