Cars with low car height and RWD cars have a hard time in the snow-covered road. The land where I live also snows and freezes in winter, so I replace it with winter tyres. It seems different in the nature of the winter tire in Japan and United States. All season tyres are not so much in Japan winter.

Luckily my car handles fair enough, I have enough horsepower, weight, and torque, that I don't get stuck. It's other drivers I worry about. I should get winter tires but I got street radials instead.

The Honda Civic Type R is a car model that was exclusive to Japan until last year. It was at its peak popularity in the 80s as a top tier tuner and drifting car. Its stock horse power is 306 and the engine comes with V-tech and is turbo charged. The price tag is a modest $35k. I plan to purchase this car later this year or wait for the 2020 model. I want to use it to pratice drifting and as a town car. Not sure what I want the paint job to look like, but I plan to tune and personalize the fuck out of it. $100k bare minimum will be spent on this car. https://youtu.be/iuJDhFRDx9M

Can't say I'm a fan of Honda's, or subura for that matter, you can thank the average person who drives em. An obnoxious kid who either got it with parents money, or saved enough for a older shitbox, both think they're fast usually which, not even close. I'll admit Honda and Subaru are easily the most modified cars on the road, not fast modified, usually annoying trash mods like an exhaust that sounds like a lawnmower trying to start.

hondas are great cars, they are one of the easiest platforms to modify, if done correctly they can be pretty fast, they are not straight line fast, but in corners they are not too shabby, the b and k series engines are great and reliable, and for subarus, they are great cars too, a little on the more unreliable cars but they are still pretty quick if done correctly

@bruschettebites Rip. Hopefully the 2020 version will have RWD if not my drifting dreams will have to wait until I buy a dedicated drifting car and if thats the case im not tuning the type R.
