I understand your point of view but when you live in a place where rains and snows and you have only one car, it needs to be an all rounder, so 4WD FTW
4WD for rain? WTF? Also, I don't know why ppl are afraid of RWD in snow. Not an issue with PROPER winter tyres. Personally I would only get some 4WD if I lived in the mountains with crappy roads and freaky slopes. But for city driving it's pretty much unnecessary.
I think people watch way too much "RWD fail" videos on youtube where they can't even start off in snow... with bald summer tyres.
Geez.. That's just a simple comparison between summers and winters.... It's not rocket science that the suv would pwn on winters. Read the end of my post you quoted and stop bitching.
What's next? Not fair to compare a BMW with VW or a Ford? Or a 1series with a 3series?
My first rwd car also was e36 m3, with 286hp/320nm, no stability and traction control had no problems driving that thing in winter, lsd diff + winter tyres = so much fun
it was a 325i btw with m3 engine,m50 manifold,k&n cai,shrick cams 294°,3.5 HFM from porsche,huge injectors,matching turner motorsport chip,lightweight pulleys,lightweight flywheel, short ratio gearbox, 3.45 lsd,active autowerke cat delete,stromung exhaust,and i dont even remember the rest
