If you drive it in a "friendly manner" you can get 18+...after the UTEC install, not only did I gain 47 awhp but I also bumped my gas mileage to 22+

The regular transportation and bad weather duty is done by old faithful waSAABi - my green 95 Saab 900 that looks as if someone had rear ended it (they made it like this at the Saab factory!!!). But that's OK - it's a relatively cheap and very practical car otherwise...

Drive a different car? Why? Where were Porsche's born? ahemmm, Germany, land of snow and rain and cold...
For me, there is no winter in San Antonio - I drive my car all year...hehe!

I drive it in the rain (depends on how much...windows mist up really easily for some reason when it rains...) and cold but not in the snow or very icy conditions.
