Yeah my cars still stock everything, including the suspension, so I'm not worried about that. I might trade cars with my friend so I can drive her EVO up there. That might be better for it since its AWD.

Oh, and here's where you get an *** protector:

I'd go with the Burton Impact Shorts. This way, you can take out the excessive padding you don't need like on your thighs or hips.

I personally went with the Crash Pads one since it also doubled as thermals... less layers.

heavy is a good thing in snow... if the G was lighter it would handle even worse in the snow... im glad to hear it can be done although the G35 would look horribly out of place @ a pass....

ur in a performance car just like normal cars cant keep up with u performance wise.. in ****ty conditions G35's cant keep up with normal FWD and 4x4.. so go under/half the speed limit and all is good its when you guys in sports compact try to keep up with a half ton 4x4 going 40+ in snow problems happen haha... =)

i usually borrow my dads Suburban that thing stays planted since it weighs like 2 g35s and has 4 wheel drive lol..

Also would taking the G up to the snow be a good idea? Any input would be appreciated, thanks!
I fit my 164 in G with the seat down but I don't remember if I had to put it in from the passenger seat area or if I was able to sneak it in through the trunk. I think through the passenger seat area (seat moved up obviously).

Just becareful to use towels to cover the edges as they will scratch the crap out of your interior!!!
