I said that you can get sideways in snow mode. There's not going to be any car that doesn't get sideways with this kind of hp and torque, if you want it to.

It was more of a warning statemtent....the car behaves beautiful when driven responsibly. The bottom line even in snow mode with traction control on....physics takes over....bottom line - don't drive like a jacka@@ in the winter.

TRAC works great, just like my last IS300. The michelin Xice are great tires also, even in packed iced roads. I still prefer the care free driving in my truck, but if I get stuck I know I am safe. I even had to stop on a steep hill at a light. No problem hooking up and taking off at the light. 4 season in the F no problem.
