there was 1 (maybe 2) driving around in Ottawa when I used to live there, but we didn't have THAT much snow that winter.. I'm still trying to justify to myself that driving around in a RWD convertible in the winter is do-able.. when that happens I may pick up a s2k

You can easily drive the s2000 in the winter. Its a little tougher on R-Compound slicks though. Makes it tough to do the speed limit while its raining.

As long as you slap some dedicated snow tires on the S, i dont see why it would be such a struggle. Where i live in Ohio, we get some wicked snow storms and i see m3's and other rwd cars around in crappy weather all the time.

Why take a risk. Get a beater and park the S2K. I have an R and I am pickey on when I take it out. Got ahold of a 92 Integra for the winter. At least then you dont have to worry about some moron losing control and slamming into you
