Mine is my DD so it sees rain. It has seen snow twice too but I try to keep it in the garage when it snows
Has your car been driven in the rain?

Can someone explain to me what the rain does to your car?
hasn't seen rain since I've owned it, but then again it never rains here in So Cal..lol
Ha! If I didn't drive my car in the rain it would probably have less than 1000 miles on it still. I almost wrecked it hydroplaining and I've gotten my car stuck in the snow twice in the last 3 years. I think it has seen more time in wet conditions than it has dry.
Funny you mention that. When I brought my Terminator home from Marshall Mize in Chatanooga it poured down rain all the way back to 'Bama. When I picked up my Z at the NCM in BG it also poured all the way back to 'Bama. Must be a sign.... ;-)
U.M.
I'm not worried about the rain as much as I worry about the traction. Factory tires hydroplane, drag radials are even worse. If you try just don't expect to drive it like a good dd tire safely.

depends on how good the tires are at the time. already sent one mustang to the junkyard because of that
When I brought my 03 home from the dealer it rained.
Remember that I am in Los Angeles, it had not rained for the previous five months and did not rain for another two afterwards.
This is typical of my luck.:rollseyes

BTW, hate to break it to you guys, but it's highly likely your cars all saw rain and snow after assembly, on the way to the dealer and at the dealer.
^This....and snow, but I live in Alabama so no worries.
I usually don't drive mine in the rain but I have two other vehicles to drive.
I keep a back up cobra for when the rain wears out my current cobra.
Yes.
Yes.
It gets rain at least once a week down here.
If I had an immaculate 03 cobra that I had polished the exhaust on etc, NO, I wouldn't drive it in the rain.
Mine has only been driven in the rain a time or two when I got caught in a fast coming storm, but i have my sebring to drive in shitty weather..
If you've made it this far, I wouldn't drive it in the rain personally..

I was lucky that didn't happen to me cause it should have. All 4 tires with DRs on the back hydroplaned on an onramp at 60 and it sent me sideways; first almost over an embankment then the car whipped around and shot back across to the other side of the freeway across 3 lanes. This was during a somewhat busy time of the day and miraculously all the car remotely close to me were in front and a safe distance behind. The car practically saved itself with little interaction from me at all, it was just crazy cause the freeway was only damp from a previous rain but on the onramp there was ruts that had filled up and I went right over them as I was looking over my shoulder to merge. I still get really nervous even with KDWs whenever I drive in the rain and can see standing puddles I have to drive over.
