ODOT has closed the roads and will fine you $141 if you do not have traction devices or traction tires on your vehicle. Spoil sports.

I only got my 914 last spring so this was the first winter since it has been in my possession. It wasn't until well after the first snowfall when I finally found a good place for it to rest during the winter. Until then it was in my parents garage but they wanted the parking spot for the van in the winter. So in November I finally found a nice place for the 914.
It was about -17 °C (darn close to 0 °F) and my 914 has no heat at all. Luckily the drive was less than five minutes so I just dressed warmly and let her run for a while before I drove anywhere. It would be fun to drive it in the winter but the snow and salt would be not be helpful, especially considering that my 914 might have some bad rust already. I can't wait for the spring :boing: Attached thumbnail(s)

Just another note. The drive was only about a block on that fresh snow and then I got on to the freeway and it was totally clear of snow.
I should make a proper post about this, but the reason I bought my 914 was because I was a Porsche lover last winter and I kept noticing this 914 under a blanket of snow. When it started getting warmer out, I really did not like watching all that snow melt on top of the car so I left a note in door of the apartment building it was parked next to. The owner contacted me and I got what I think was a pretty good deal on it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) It wasn't too long before I was driving my first Porsche (and first car).

Too bad I don't have $4 million kicking around.
We should all split the cost and start this 914 town... sounds like a good idea (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif) |
