And the MSRP for xDrive is $2000 on the 3 series, and even less if you know how to haggle for a car, so the price difference once you've bought snow tires and pay to have them swapped is negligible, just to say your car handles slightly better when you...get on the highway or take a right on red  .
The way some people talk here, you'd think their commute to work was on a drag strip. |
GREAT POST.... i love how Europeans tell us we are lazy. Try being lazy stuck in ice and snow trying to push your car out of a tough snowy spot. far from lazy... its downright dangerous.
