    I drove the Jeep in 12+" of snow. For some reason I don't think the E30 would have done so well with that.

      Didn't drive my E30 on Friday because there was simply too much snow around where I live for it's lowered stance. But, I did drive it really early this morning up to the I70 park and ride to go skiing. Two things:

      -love my snow tires...I was one of the few people making passes on I25 at 630 in the morning.

      -thank God for my skid plate...there were way too many crusty patches in the center of the lanes that made nasty crunching sounds as my skid plate crushed them!

        Took mine up my un-plowed driveway with ~ 1' drifts. Punched right through. I've had all manner of Subarus and even an X3 get stuck on my driveway, all with snow tires. The E30 iX is a beast in snow, no doubt.

            No one makes this car anymore. The government won't allow them, normal people won't buy them. So it's up to us: the freaks, the weirdos, the informed. To buy them, to appreciate them, and most importantly, to drive them.

                    The E30 doubles nicely as a plow.

                            Kinda what mine looked like on Friday! Just wondering, but does anyone else throw a couple summer tires in the trunk on slick days? Seems to help a bit in my 318, but could be a placebo effect.

                              Foot and a half here. Its pretty ridiculous how capable iX's are.
