Replying to: jrw52 (May 12, 2009 3:59 pm) Hey JRW, nope, haven't warmed up to the 335xi yet and am not likely to unless I move up into the mountains. FWIW, I lived in Chicago for over 12 years and an quite familiar with Illinois weather, and I've got to say, at its worst, Illinois weather is not as severe as the 7 New Hampshire winters I've experienced, even at their mildest. Long story short, I guess I just enjoy RWD too much to give it up just because of a little snow. Best regards, Shipo Replies to this message: jrw52 (May 13, 2009 5:06 am)

Replying to: shipo (May 13, 2009 2:18 am) Shipo, thanks I had a feeling that would be your response! If anyone else is still monitoring this thread who has experience with the 2009 335i with x drive, I'd be interested in hearing your perspective. I have heard that BMW may have improved somewhat the suspension on the 335i with x drive for the 2009 model year in response to feedback from enthusiasts. Thanks, JRW
