The morning(0030) I picked up my baby. 3 weeks ago first temps below freezing and first snow. Now have a couple feet of snow and the "high" today is -13. Drives, I would say just as good as any FWD car would. Tires I'm using are Continental ExtremeContact DWS06.

Drove with the 20" A/S Runflats today was such a bad idea.... No damage but I doubt i'll be getting home tonight.

My brand new Fifty today in the snow. 311 miles and summer tires still on it. Tire Rack was back ordered on the TPMS sensors and the installer they shipped everything to is taking appointments after January 5th for tire swaps. "We're booked full until then"

It would be nice if Tire Rack actually knew that beforehand.

These posts are hilarious, can we please get more of people who garage queen the car? It never gets old, trust me. It is incredibly hilarious every time, like every single time even if there are 3-4 similar posts on the same page. Keep doing it and we might die of laughter

Understood that this is not a Camaro, but if anyone is looking for some footage of a powerful RWD car (2010 CTS-V) outfitted with proper high performance winter tires (Pirelli Sottzeros), here's a clip I made during the 1st snowfall in a parking lot after purchasing the car.
Had to figure out how it behaved and I couldn't have been more pleasantly surprised!
I learned to drive in the snow on a RWD vehicle when we put bias-ply snow tires on the rears only and there were no nannies. I had to try very hard to get the car out of sorts with all the nannies on and it brought back a lot of memories doing (controlled) donuts with the nannies off.
This car is still my DD and it has always inspired confidence driving it in all winter conditions.

Best regards,

Elie
