absolutely the case ALL the time in Colorado - ice and slick road conditions, 4 wheel drive = 4 wheel slide

regardless, I'm glad I didn't order the RS pkg w/ the 20" rims on mine - but the video was still fun to watch

It's not the snow on the car I'd be worried about, its the things I'd end up running into after I got carried away.
feel the same way jeep and all

That is pretty badass!!
But why must Chevy advertise the V6 model?! I'd like to see an LS3 pulling that kind of maneuvering.

I love watching the video - great fun!

Obviously GM isn't trying to prove anything with it

Besides, it isn't the snow --- it's the driver.

Don't see many Camaro's out in my neck of my woods. Its not the snow, but the road salt is why mine will not be out till that stuff is long gone.

After $3500 of damage due to 3" of snow and a 5mph turn yielding a left slide into the curb, i can guarantee those aren't the same tires I have on my car. I should have swapped to some all terrains then and saved my money!

Brought mine home on Thursday, just beautiful, took pics outside in the snow....before it got really dirty,... snow, sand, some chemical(white)stuff(anti-ice melt?). I had it built and bought it: to drive it...all the time. Dirt, snow, mud all comes off with a good wash and detail. Nothing wrong with keeping it in a garage(for those of you who do)....but I ENJOY mine....everyday!!
