RE: [56k]Wowww just drove in deep snow for the first time
took my car out for the first time in snow since i bought it (november '05)
its my first winter with all wheel drive
and i must say i'm extremely impressed with the performance
there was a 3 car accident like 5min from my house involing a ford crown victoria (taxi), toyota avalon, and a honda civic.
btw i have winter tires on my car.... Yokohama AVS Winter via 225/45/17
it rocks in the snow, zooming past everyone doing 20-30mph
im more and more impressed with my audi. didnt know car had heated mirrors. while i was brushing the snow off the car, i saw the snow melting away on my mirror. touched it and it was WARM.
i wonder what this car comes with.... i assume it as the cold weather package (heated seats, just found out heated mirrors, and i read somewhere heated wiper nozzles??...) and the sports package (17" 7 spoke alloys, sport suspension see the red shocks and noticibly lower than other audis). i dont have HID stock but i had a kit from previous car that i put in.

Sounds like you guys need some more practice driving in the snow 
The trick as someone said earlier is to keep the car in gear and keep the RPMs as low as possible for maximum traction. Don't try to take turns in neutral like you might do on dry roads or you'll just slide into a curb. You gotta keep it in gear. It gets a little trickier when you add hills into the equation too.
