So I live in New england. Winter is just around the bend and I'm thinking about buying my first BMW. For years, I've had front-wheel drive cars and 4-wheel drive pickups/SUV's. I just love the new
3-series cars and MUST have one.I've tested both the 325i and the 325xi... the all-wheel drive model is noticably less responsive than the 325i. I guess all the extra mechanics are just power robbing and that takes some of the fun out of it.
Here's my question on all you die-hards: Will the rear-drive 325i hold its own in the winter or would I end up with a $40K mistake on my hands?
Thanks in advance.
