How do the new models (automatic) handle in rain, freezing rain, sleet and light snow? The dealer is telling me that the 330i RWD will be fine because of hte Dynamic Stability Control and All Season Traction Control and that the AWD 330xi would be good in snow, deep snow; otherwise, it would not be needed. What is the experience of anyone out there with these vehicles in wintry type conditions. Is the dealer on crack? :) I'm not talking severe conditoins, but wintry conditions that arise while traveling or when trying to get home from work. If what the dealer is telling me is true, then I'll go with the RWD over the AWD to save $$ and order time. Thanks for anyone's help.
