Well, for the first time today, I drove my Q45 around on snow packed roads and I'd have to say I was nothing short of pleasantly surprised. Despite the fact that it's rear wheel drive, it'd blow the doors off my SVX in the snow any day of the week. The traction control does a surprisingly good job of preventing wheel spin. Also, it doesn't slide all over the friggin road like the SVX. I certainly have more confidence in the Q and find myself going faster. For 1800 bucks, what a fantastic buy. Just had to gloat.
