Would either Nissan 300zx (1990+), Toyota MR2 (1990+), or a Honda Del Sol (1993+) be an alright winter winter car?
I realize they wont be the best.
Thanx

Del Sol would be the best winter car because it's FWD.

I've owned 2 of the 3 cars. The 90+ Mr2 will be a death trap in the winter. The Del Sol on the other hand handles well in the snow. Hopefully your weather stripping is good or else the car fogs up badly though.

slap a set of winter tires on the del sol and you should be alright. Definitely the best out of the three.

YOu think it's a deathrap, why? maybe you were driving on bald tires? They handle great, even in the snow. My friend had a 89 mr2 supercharged, winter driven, handled amazing. Then he got a 93 Mr2 and drives it in winters. He loves that care and so do it. Just get w/e you likem ore and dont be stupid in winter. But i have to agree DelSOl FWD=Good winter.

Ive decided that as much as I would like any one of those cars they are impractical as is. A Del Sol would be my top choice because its in my price range. For my first car, no... ill get a nice 2 seater when im older.
Thanx for the advice though guys (girls?), much appreciated.
