If only. But then I would be confused at what the temperature actually was. My base understanding of Celsius is, 10 is cold, 20 is good, 30 is hot. I did get in the 6° C water when I was in Iceland a month ago and then I promptly got back in the 37° water.

There’s some for you.

I think we were really bored last winter. Seems there’s a much bigger community now.

I agree. I think there were maybe 10 of us on here discussing things a year and a half ago.

Sadly, my car is sitting mostly dormant in my garage.

Mines in storage. No point in driving it here in winter imo anyway. We just finished a wild storm weekend here.
Plowing snow for all my neighbors took me 3 hours almost. First it was wet then it turned to cement. What a mess.

I'm 60 miles west of Toronto. It's definitely colder elsewhere in Canada but it's still mighty cold here anyway.
Trouble is when it started snowing it was heavy and wet. Then the flash freeze happened. That's a real bitch of a combination. Plus rain in between. Southern Ontario can be weird place for weather. Especially in the new climate we seem to have.
Having snow removal equipment is awful handy around here. I have a F350 Crew long bed with a big blade on it. Even it was struggling with the wet stuff. It was freezing to the pavement. So if you push it somewhere and come back a bit later it's frozen almost to the surface. Then it's hard to move.

A huge mess.

Yep the opposite and for no other reason than I like change... the GC was/is incredible and if I had the coupe first Id rock the GC now.

I think Im sadly all done with the S63tu though and this will be last run. I have 6 iterations of it.

The 2024 RS6/7 has piqued my interest with its looks, reviews, etc. The Estate is awesome!! I have had 2 RS7's and while the first one (14) was ok but cool at the time, they made some decent adjustments in the suspension and steering on my 17 Performance. Now I hear the 24 is even that much better than the C8 version 1. We shall see.
