Hi All
We're getting a series of snow storms here and this was the first real winter test for the car.
I have winter tires and they work pretty well. There's some wheel spin but only at the worst possible conditions but in combination with the lower gear it works out pretty manageable. The paddles on the wheel do make it easier.
Also noticed that the trunk lid has a tendency to freeze over. I drove for about an hour with the rear defroster on and off and on arrival I found that the ice accumulated on the lower part of the window and the trunk lid gap. Not really a problem but something the engineers can keep in mind for the future perhaps.
