I don't ever get snow because Kentucky sucks. Anyways, I always find it funny that Audi owners rejoice in snow and every other luxury car owner is scared of it. Yay for Quattro!

Do it. You'll kick yourself for not doing it. Just plow straight through that ****. My A4 handles everything I can throw at it on cheap Kumho all-seasons. These cars are a blast to drift and they're real easy to get into a slide and real easy to get out of a slide. If it's Quattro it'll go through.

I think I am good down to -20F. Plus like CLX said zobie attacks are less likely in the snow cause they freeze.
there is no such thing as too many socks

oh man god loves me!.. i picked up my car today at 4:30p. then it started to snow around 5:30p at 7 i went out with my friends and it was snowing hard.. met up with some oter people and there was about 2 inches on the ground. we went and did some fun drifting.. the snow may have only stuck for a few hours before it melted. but that was the most AWD fun ive ever had...
i would have taken videos but my iphone crapped out before i left and i lost the video recorder app. but i got a cool pic lol

I'll post some this weekend...we are expecting about 6-12 inches on Thursday and I'm sure my Audi bon-bon will look amazing. What's weird is you can see the flashing red alarm light through the snow.

from dead stop made a left onto a side road to my house... i was going say 10 tops. car completely went sideways and my rear end tapped a small tree... i mean small tree... ripped off the rear bumper and broke the face off the tail light... the bumper and tail light are still in one piece.. but the bumper was to big to fit in my car so i left it on the side of the road.. ill have to get it later... thank god i have full coverage tho.... i hope this doesnt kill me. i just had to pay 800$ out of pocket for my transmission.
