I've driven RWD every winter for the past 4 years, hell I used to drive the Porsche in the winter. Remember, I live in Rochester, we get more snow than most of the USA. If you have a clue as to what you're doing, you dont need traction control. When I'm driving our e46 the car has an annoying amount of understeer with the traction control on in the snow, much easier to control with it disabled.

Jaguar XKR is the specific vehicle that I was referring to. Without the tc it is stuck in 1/4" of snow.
I live in west michigan and get the lake effect from lake michigan. That is alot of snow, none of my cars have tc (awd for one though) and I have driven them fine in the winter. I also drove a 1987 Corvette for one winter, so I am very familiar with sports cars in shitty conditions.

Haha. Good reason, but who agrees that BMW's designs are getting uglier by the year?

Seriously, if you are going to continue posting recycled thoughts from every forum you've been reading because your mother finally let you on the 'net. Stop now and save me the trouble of lacing into you.
