the G is fine in the snow with snow tires and if you dont drive it like its an awd. with snow tires if its still not good throw a couple sand bags at the sides in the trunk or your most overweight buddy in the backseat and its great. snow drifting is the **** though

+1.

Yeah, it's tons of fun and eeeeasy to play with the G in the snow. But I tried it with my summer tires and couldn't move at all = boring. Maybe the guy on the video also had summer tires because it was boring. The guy didn't really do anything.

Put some snow tires on and it's a whole new game.

Where is that? Mall of America? That parking lot is huge with spaced out light poles and flat as a pancake.

I've never had problems in the rain. AA traction rated tires are great for the wet. But I can't do anything with a dusting of snow on the road. Still got the summers on :/

Doing illegal stuff looks fun wish I were there!

the guy is me...and I have Blizzacks on the rear. It's hard to see the angles with the phone camera...the snow melted today, so I guess I can't go do it again with better camera. It's in my college parking lot. And with VDC on with snow tires all around the G handles like any car would, if you drive like an idiot, it doesnt matter what car it will suck in the snow.
