Never thought I would see this
Drove down to Norcross, GA for a one week class. Checked the weather for the week both Saturday and Sunday before I left, all looked good. They sure were wrong. Never thought I would see this on my baby.
This very little bit shut Atlanta down.

What is the problem? No window scraper? Just leave the car running on defrost with the fan on high for 10 or 15 minutes. I think the coupe has rear defog on the back glass, too, right?

Icy here in Myrtle Beach SC. Been raining 2 days straight and today freezing rain all day. Been hearing the sounds of tree limbs cracking all day. It is much worse in the western part of the state.

It won't melt (the car, not the snow).
Sometimes Mother Nature throws us a curve. Be safe out on the roads. Beautiful car BTW.

Welcome to GA where we have no snow equipment so to speak or expertise on how to treat roads for it. If you noticed last week we were shut down people taking up to 24 hours to get home. I would not drive on this ice snow mix if I were you. All the gravel and in some cases rocks will damage your paint finish along with the salt that's not melted. I don't drive until we get rain to wash off the mix of gravel and salt. I drive my beater 1997 z28 Camaro if I need to go somewhere. This is not the norm for us usually just one storm in winter and done this year twice. I use to drive my vetts in the snow until one faithful day a salt and gravel truck came by and blasted the whole side of my 85 vett back in 87 or so I'm a N.C. boy.

Okay, now I understand. Don't buy a white Stingray. The bright reflection against the atmosphere will bring snow...

Car has not moved from hotel parking lot. Friday the roads should be good enough to drive back home to TN. But the Ice and snow must be off the roads. Pretty clear now.
