It may be if you're into drifting and other things that you probably shouldn't be doing other than on the track, but in normal driving I can't tell that it's there...until it snows.

Sorry call BS on that story. Any car with winter tires will perform better than any car with all wheel drive on all seasons. PERIOD.
