I am considering purchasing a 745i. Would try not to drive it in the winter if at possible, but if I did I am wondering what other's experiences have been. How does it handle in the snow? What if I put snow tires on? Do you put weight in the trunk?

Thanks for input,

Bailey


Unfortunately my wife has to drive her 735 in the winter and she would not be without it. It has heated seats and sheepskin covers and is as warm as toast. I put Blizzaks all around last year and this thind goes like a tank in the snow and ice. Never got stuck and we do get some serious snow here in NW PA along Lake Erie. We make sure we get it cleaned every week at the local car wash to forestall some of the inevitable and so far it has been holding up well. If you don't have to drive it in the winter, better for you and the car.
Hope this helps,
Good Luck,

Tom in PA
