Couple of years ago -38 Celsius in Finland... Don't know what it is in other scales but can say it's bloody cold! No problems with the car except overall stifness and not too hot inside cabin either (having cold climate version) for obvious reasons...

Oddly enough, but easy to remember, -40 C = -40 F

My record sofar is -33 celsius in winter 2006 in normal traffic. Year ago in February 2007 there was a short period
of very cold temperatures, down to - 38 celsius. That week I didn't have to drive, took a bus and let the car be in garage
