Just went thru my first snow fall with my G35 and I'll be honest I was scared at first to drive to work.. My road wasn't even plowed that morning.. after digging her out and getting out of driveway, I was very impressed. Had no issues what so ever. Might sound crazy but handled just as well as my wife's Mountaineer.

Thumbs up

I have all season tires on my 20 inch rims and I live on the back roads that get little to no salt during snowy days and my Falken PT-722 All Season tires along with the VDC did the job with no problem.

Own a 2004 S4 and previously owned a 2004 g35 coupe. Gotta say the g was more fun in the snow with the snow tires. Yeah the audi plows through everything but where's the thrill of possibly getting stuck or sliding all over the place?
