I try not to, on dry winter days when temperature is about +2 or 3 and dry I am driving it, as soon as there is snow or black ice on the roads I go home right away and take my CR-V its crazy. 2 days ago during the day time it was rainy but nothing to worry about, so anyways I went to my friends chilled at his place a bit smoked up even, and came out at night when there is black ice. OH MY GOD ! I drifting like ( !@#!@$) and barely got home. Summer tires FTL

I managed to do one thing with the M5 in Winter. Use the SMG and dont go over 3rd gear, stay on the second or third always even if u are going like 80km/h or 45mph you have more control of the car, or cruise button its true actually really helps ! Try it guys, not joking.

Yup I know its expensive here, but even though in America its almost as twice as cheaper, the taxes and bla bla bla to get into Canada is almost the same price I tried already. For Americans its good to buy their cars in America, for Canadians they should stay in Canada, because when you bring the car from the states, you will have to pay some big amounts just to verify it as a Canadian car + taxes = almost Canadian prices.
