The "current vehicles only" part complicates things a whole lot, and in my mind makes the contest essentially pointless. So exactly who is supposed to keep track if a poster actually still does own vehicle in certain image. You requested winter images, which for all practical purposes means material shot at least a year ago if not more. Looking at the pics submitted so far, it would be very interesting to find out how many other cars pictured have gone on to new homes (or landed in their last ditch).
I have owned, hooned, built, (rebuilt) and raced Subarus for more than 10 years now. My most recent Scoob came to me this September, so good bloody luck getting snow pix by the 15th of this December. My other Scoobs are sold or rusted out, and the race cars have been terminally crashed and/or are on hiatus. I have hundreds of Subaru action pics in my archives, OK whoopie doo, but since I don't currently own any of those cars any more those pics are hereby worthless and effectively I am out of this contest.
What difference does it make if somebody still owns a car in a picture or not? Time marches on, guys.
Poo. WTF doods.

The 2.5 RS rally car in my Garage got sold in 2008--it's still racing, just not with me. The white RS coupe got sold this year--I'm not hooning it any more but the current owner sure as hell is!. LDR's STI rally car is on hiatus, and may or may not race this year. etc etc.
No doubt there are many other stories like this in the MS Garage section.

Not going to lie, it is going to be almost impossible to get some snow shots... We had a dusting this morning but I was on my way to work, and then it also started to just rain.

My shot is from the first snow this year. What's the problem????
So I understand it'll be difficult with the lack of snow so far. So here's the compromise.... Use a photo of your car, past,current dd, rally car whatever it is as long as it was yours. Post your submission here and ill include it in the voting... If its not in the garage already and you don't want to have it as a featured car then don't bother adding it.

Sweet... Next season shouldn't be as difficult.
