Well said. There's nothing wrong with driving M3's or similar cars in the winter with proper tires, but if someone prefers driving a different car when it snows, so be it. I prefer driving my WRX in the snow, but if I didn't have it, I would certainly be driving my 135 with snow tires.

How about some more snow pictures?

dcstep, very nice shots.
