Let's See Pictures of Your C7 in the Snow - The Deeper the Better!
Old man winter is coming. I thought it would be fun to get in the mood with some C7 pictures in the snow, the deeper the snow the better!

Not a C7 as I haven't had it for a winter yet, but proof they don't melt in snow either:

My C5 used to be my daily driver, even in winter, but I'd never do that again. Just because it's possible doesn't make it a good idea. These cars are too low for the snow, no matter how good of a tire it has under it.
I have not, and will not ever drive my C6 in the snow, and when I get a C7 it will be the same. These cars deserve better than that, the snow and salt wreaks havoc on these cars. I have seen that first hand too (my C5 had it's original ECM go bad because the salt from the roads completely corroded the connections to it)

Not a C7, but the snow depth was over 8 feet. Thank goodness for snow plows.

First of all, I hate snow....that's what I have a daily driver for....would not subject my baby to all the salt, sand, dirt, crap that is on the road in the wintertime...there are those who treat their ladies well, and those that treat them like crack ho's....those that drive them in the snow fall in the latter category imo...

Gotta love southern Arizona in the winter time!
I look forward to parking my topless C7 next to a line of Palm trees as I get out in shorts, flip flops with a latte in my hand on Christmas Day!
I miss my birthplace in Chicago dearly, but I definitely will not miss the salt, snow, and ice!
