So what's he doing in the picture? Drifting, getting stuck, getting un-stuck, or fishtailing?

it looks like NSX to me because the roof is black

I know there is a guy in Edmonton who drives a lambo in the winter. He's the son of one of the owners of West Edmonton Mall. The car is awd and he doesn't give a shit about crashing it.

I still think it's a 355, but it's a Spyder with the top up, like this one:

it's definately not an NSX. Look where the side vent starts. Looks more like the 355

It's a 335 without a doubt. The side vent on the NSX is behind the door while the 335 has it on the door.

naap, looks more like the Ferarri to me.

A late model Gallardo I could see taking out if it was just compacted snow on the roadway, but nowhere near a plowed and graveled mess like that.

The car is in the wrong lane so I assume he spun out. Of course with next to nothing gorund clearence. That's a Ferrari, those wheels give it away.

Saw coverage of the Toronto storm on the noon news, and there definitely was someone driving around in an F355. Found a video clip online and snagged a screenshot:

One of the Ghermezian brothers used to drive an NSX around as well in the winters. They just place some winters treads on it.

The placement of the side vents gives it away.

Some douche bag I went to high school with would brag that his dad didn't want to drive his 355 during the "winter" so he bought a 550 to deal with the wet roads. Jackass.

That is a funny picture.
