mini snow test. adi a3 vs bmw e92 335i

blueaudi18 · 12-13-2007, 04:10 PM

utside condition. 4-5 " of snow.

a3
since its haldex awd, the initial take off had a split second wheel spin until the rear wheels kicked in. Than I was on my way around a little unplowed parking lot.

tire 17" all season...

335i
RWD. Pretty much the same as the a3 around the unplowed parking lot. Tried to make a quick turn but car suprisingly did not get off track. Very impressed so far. Also did a reverse into first without a complete stop and it performed flawlessly. I don't think I have anything to worry about this winter. Need to go home and test how it perofrms on a steep slop. So far so good.

should've tested the 335XI, does well in snow esp with the right tires
