Well right now I drive a 1994 V8 thunderbird. I had the rear end redone with 3.73 gears and trac loc.
It is my winter car. But yeah, I probably will look for one with the gold package and trac loc.

I think I read somewhere that the TRAC option wasn't available on the 5speed SC3's.
And, at least in the early years, TRAC was part of the "cold weather" option package, which also included heated seats. Harder to find int he sun belt.
And a LHD UZZ32 active suspension car would be rare all right, since they never built one

lexsc3,
Just outta curiousity, you go to school at Miami? You said you were at school by Cinci. I live in NE Ohio also and just graduated from Miami last may.
The SC's are tricky to drive in the snow, but I have to admit the traction control helped a ton. I have a steep incline in the driveway, and got up everytime (took a lot of rally style driving,) but never needed bags of sand or salt in the back. Snow tires would have helped.
