Me, a few times. I don't do it too often, and when I do it's because a storm moved in unexpectedly.

You can see the snow drifting in this picture against my baby at the very beggining of the short video.

Only reason I don't drive mine in the winter is due to all the salt they through on the roads. My car is an 01 and I have had it 8 years now and the paint and under-carriage still look almost new. April-November I drive it almost everyday
i owned a 99Z28 before , drove that year round and you can defiintely tell adiffeence in the condition of the paint and undercarriage

Nope. Not even intentionally in the rain.

I was caught unexpectedly in a spring snow storm in a C6 on I-80/90 traveling west through Ohio one spring and was scared for my life. Trucks were throwing snow all over the car. Visibility was zero. Could barely drive the car. Next time I'll stop and get a hotel room.

The car is so low, I think it's dangerous.

You asked does anybody drive "there" where do you mean?
"Their" is a person if you are asking us if we drive in the winter, "there" is a place.
