re comparing saabs bmw s edwards world std com jonathan edwards writes bmw s suck in the snow i have aggressive snows plus a hundred pounds of sand in the back and i still try to avoid driving in the snow i happily took the saab through blizzard conditions without a worry i would say this is the single design flaw in the bmw for a reasonable sum you can get a bmw with traction control a torque sensing limited slip rear differential since no fwd car including the saab has this kind of front differential since it would exacerbate torque steer a bmw with traction control should have the theoretical advantage on snow of course weight distribution and skinny tires could affect this
