I'm considering buying a 2001 LS430. I'd like to know how the LS430 drives in the winter. The weight balance of the car is very good (47/53) so there's a good amount of weight on the back (unlike many years ago with RWD cars). Plus the car has all sorts of stability control. And after putting some good winter tires on it, I don't think there should be any problem.. I live in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. So we do get a fair bit of snow from time to time, but nothing like Buffalo bellow us here.. And NO, driving another car is not an option, I already have a Corolla 1994 as my beater car in replacement for my BMW 325i for the summer season...
Let me know what your experiences are with the LS430 with good winter tires.. Thanks..
