Supra in the Snow

TheColdOne · 07-31-2005, 06:39 PM

If you absolutely have to drive it, in a city, on cleaned off roads, at a lower speed, with waay longer braking times, then it's possible, (but the heater is so poor i'd recommend thick gloves) anything else like highway, rural, etc.) I'd say no. even with snow tires, (all season radials on a supra are ridiculous)
Speaking from experience, if you really need to get a supra for the winter, I'd recommend a mkII, It'll start in -50 (with a block heater) and would drive through almost anything in winter, (but you really have to know what you're doing the rearend gets very squirrley.)

also, winter is very hard on these cars, so you'll either be doing a lot of work to it, or really shortening it's lifespan.
