Isn't it a 30hp difference? I don't think that's gonna be the difference between life and death in the snow.

Get it!

so you're basically thinking that 480HP RWD might not be ideal for the snow?

Did you ever think that 450HP wasn't either?

not sure if srs

and everybody survived it (almost everybody I guess)

But also, my 2nd half of the question is asking if $6k+ dev. Pack. Is worth it's price, I mean I could get an entire used 10-yr old c-class for that price! Actually that point is pretty stupid. Who would want a 10-yr old c-class anyway? Haha

'aight. I think i'm going to just look into possibly buying another 4wd car for the winter, probably the base cherokee because it's relatively cheap.

I didn't go for Performance Pack/Development pack or whatever it's called. It's about $8k in the Uk, for about 30bhp. Seemed overkill.
