And just so this has something to do with detailing here is a good reflection shot of my old 240sx. It was all done with OTC stuff (Meguiars) and by hand. Not bad for a car made in 1996 with the original paint (pics taken in 2005).

Bet the Evo is a lot of fun in the snow with the 4wd. Hope your products hold up well through the season.

I need to do a coat of wax and its actually not gonna snow tomorrow, but it will be 35 degrees, so ill probably wash it and put a coat of wax on just to protect it.

Nice pics thanks for sharing! Let me give you a little tip. Spend some time in a large EMPTY snow / ice covered parking lot and learn how to handle your car. I totaled a car at 17. I hit black ice paniced.. hit the brakes... did 3... 360's and hit a tree. My car was facing the tree I hit and every window was shattered expect the front window (totaled). After getting released from the hospital my father gave me one day to rest and took me to an empty parking lot for what seemed like hours until I could handle his car. It was pretty cool my dad teaching me to do donuts on snow and ice and then get the car under control. I am glad you enjoyed your first drive in the snow but it's not always fun! Be safe!

Thanks for the tip and i was hoping to do that today, but the snow in parking lots was gone for the most part. It'll happen though :D
 
Nice car! Tonya's advice is spot on. There are too many people that get AWD or 4WD and think they are invincible.:eek:

Man it looks cold there...

That's sweatshirt weather, sparkie!:D

Its honestly not to cold yet... Just 35-40 degrees in the Valley and 25-30 at my Dads (thats the high BTW) and the low's are around 10-15 degrees, so its not in the negatives yet lol.
 
My EVO hates the snow.....but the grip on those cars with the right tires at a snowy road are insane..
