The CSX is making a good winter car thus-far... I'm still debating on whether or not I should buy winter tires for it though. The all-seasons seem to be doing just fine...

You can buy a used set of OEM wheels for about $400. Tires are $800.

You couldn't pay me enough to drive $1200 car.
Sometimes it's fun to rip around in a car you don't care about. You can do all the things you don't normally do, like hit shopping carts, ramp railroad tracks, etc. It's like a snow go cart

As fun as that stuff is, I'd rather have a nice car as my beater

AP1 felt great last night, -12 or so, shifts were perfect, clutch as firm and suspension operated perfectly. One of the best driving nights I've had for a while.
