Do you drive your Camaro in the snow?

I know not everybody can afford a "salt car" and they don't have a choice if they want to actually go anywhere, but that doesn't explain all of this:

Looks like he's having a great time. Mine's parked over mothballs cozy under his new car cover until spring arrives.

I am way to scared of other drivers to drive her in the snow

If we had snow the answer would be no, I love my 4x4 truck for that.

I solved the dilemma by building another garage in my backyard.

Mine is a daily driver, so yes i do no problem just be carefull.

Some of you are saying "not even in the rain" ...Like nothing can happen aslong as long as the sun is shining.

Salt and rain, nothing good maintenance (keep it clean) can't fix, i mean its not a 50 year old classic, its never going to be worth more than we paid for it...
It's a great car meant to be driven. I see some of us here who have gotten there car a year ago, and only 2000 miles or less on it? I think a $30 k painting or other form of art would have been a better investment.

drove it last year in the snow with summer tires. went slow out of the sub, then the main roads were clear. this year we leased a bmw for the winter. i decided winter driving puts to much wear on this car.
