      I do. With beefy snow tires and a 3.73 lsd it's quite fun.

          ^ Bad ass jeep.

          I have so far, but I mostly dd my '93 325i with gnarly snow tires.

          I have a 3.73 lsd in the '89 but shit all season tires. I got completely sideways going 5mph on a side street a few nights ago, nearly hitting several cars on either side of me. Scared the shit out of me, no more snow driving in the e30.

                After going from a hella pig tahoe last year to e30 this year it is quite different. With todays first real snow in the midwest going to school was quite the adventure haha. I had some fun in the parking lot in first gear sliding around but I learned quickly not to give to much throttle on the highway, just take it slow and steady.

                        My E30 is my only car this winter, so she is doing winter dd duty. Quite well I might add. Chains and an LSD arent that bad.

                        Looking either for a mid 90's cherokee, or an e30 325ix for winter duty next year. Staying hopeful
