    FT-86 winter driving: handling in the snow

    having driven several rwd cars in the winter time. i'm really curious how good the FT86 will handle in the snow. not everyone can afford to get a 2nd car just for the winter time. i've never had a problem with a rwd car being stuck in the snow. all i've ever needed is a good set of winter tires plus some extra weight in the trunk for extra traction.

    i'm sure it will handle fine. it'll also be fun when you want it to be. just like you said just put on good winter tires and you'll be ok. just dont drive like an idiot.

    Exactly. I have driven other rear wheel drive cars in the snow and been fine. Also with the great balance of the 86, it would be fun as heck to drift in the snow!

    I can't wait to test this car out in a full blown canadian snow storm. It should be a lot of fun and still grippy with the proper snow tires.
