Excellence · 12-16-2007, 08:42 AM

My BMW got OWNED by the snow. There is at least a whole fatty cake of icing on top of of it.
Post pictures! I cleaned up my driveway already so it looks like nothing really special...
If anyone else have un-shoveled driveways and un-cleaned cars post pictures from yesterdays aftermath!
They weren't joking about that 25cm alright.
Well anyways just want to wish everyone happy holidays and DRIVE SAFELY!

I was shoveling my driveway this morning (to no avail I might add) and kept seeing these idiots driving on the road. Unless you have to work somewhere today or you are getting married, I can't understand how anyone would be driving in this shit!!!

EdmBimmer · 12-16-2007, 10:24 AM

Hehe,

Where I live they do all the shoveling of the walks and driveways!

selmar · 12-16-2007, 10:36 AM

Will have to wait till tomorrow to take any pics. Right now any picture will be pure white! Can't see anything otherside except white.

I don't own a e9X but close enough since no one else has posted up pictures. I took these with my crappy camera phone, so don't expect anything HD.

I made some crappy videos with my phone also, so i'll post those when i get them up.

BMdblU · 12-16-2007, 10:58 AM

I need to go out at some point this afternoon, I'm gonna be a snow plow

UltimateBMW · 12-16-2007, 11:01 AM

Here are 3 videos I took on my phone of my car. Again, the quality is absolute crap but it gives ya an idea.

SooBoy · 12-16-2007, 11:03 AM

Still snowing hard in Toronto @ 11am. No photos though; my baby's safely in the garage!

Chunga · 12-16-2007, 11:09 AM

I am having slepless nights about my first winther in my first rear wheel car ever.

UltimateBMW · 12-16-2007, 11:14 AM

Usually its only a problem if your dense and want to go out while the snow is either falling or still on the ground. I'm really surprised that a plow hasn't cleaned up the roads yet. It might be because its a sunday.

Usually the roads get cleaned during or almost immediately after the snow falls here. Once the roads are cleaned its not even a problem. So when you look at it in the long run I might be put out of being able to drive only 2-3 full days worth of time out of a year. Thats an average over the last 5 years of living in OH, and NY.

So I don't think you'll have much trouble.

Chunga · 12-16-2007, 11:37 AM

Thx.....

NoKids · 12-16-2007, 12:23 PM

chromerl · 12-16-2007, 12:28 PM

Has anyone actually gone out to test their car in the snow??

I think it's better wait till the snow stops first. There'll be plenty of snow don't you worry.

flush01 · 12-16-2007, 01:25 PM

I was out driving my sister to work. It was a crazy drive. Cars were stuck on the ramps to the highway, stuck on hills, etc. My car with snow tires had no problem getting around though, except for getting into my own garage

Excellence · 12-16-2007, 02:28 PM

Holy shit its crazy out there, I drove out for lunch and shit. The drive is TOUGH. Steeles has barely any cars!
