I'm definitely a BMW guy but for day to day driving I just prefer the piece of mind that comes with AWD. I will definitely do track lessons one day but until then I'm not very confident hooning around when it's wet out.
With AWD I can still corner like a jack*ss when it's wet and not fear for the unknown. |
Ha ha!
Corner like a jackass - I hear you. Guess I'm still a purist at heart, (ironic since I've gone electric), but RWD in the wet isn't bad in a modern BMW. The nannies are very good and it comes somewhat down to tire quality. MPSS or the newer version or an equivalent tire are a must in a proper performance sedan.
From here, performance driver training truly will change the way you approach driving in most conditions. Porsche has a winter driving school that is great also. Winter tires are a must up North, but I'm in the Deep South, so it's summer rubber full time for me. Wife has No-Seasons on the X5.
