My last car was a 330xi, which with AS tires I could not begin to get it to slip, slide or get sideways even if I wanted it to. Then I bought a 2011 528i RWD. I decided to spend what I saved by doing away with AWD on more options. I felt that for the few days per winter that I needed AWD for ice and snow I could make due. Then from 2011 to now we have had much more snow and ice. My experience has been that I really missed my AWD. The 528i can't get up my driveway in 1-2" of snow. The 330xi would plow through anything. I felt much more secure and confident in the xi. Fast forward to the present. I ordered a 535 x drive. In the meantime my wife drives me to work in winter weather in her X5.
