Q for coupe owners in snowy Canada
Guys,
What are your impressions on driving the C-coupe in winter so far? With and without the Evolution (C7) package, as well as with and without winter tires.
I can't wait till mine arrives.

I have a C240 auto with the allseason 16" Continentals
It's been fine so far. W mode, ESP, and smart (I mean, less-dumb) driving. Snowed a bit last Friday here in TO
Then again, you people out west are getting REAL weather.

2001 C240
I've got a 2001 240 auto with Michellin Pilot Alpins. I'm very impressed with the winter driving of this car. I'm in southern SK so its more ice than deep snow but its the ice that gets you anyways. ESP works great. One of the reasons I dumped my Tahoe for the C was the (hoped for) better stability and handeling on ice - and I'm not at all disappointed.

Hey Forum Members - I think our poster is looking for input from owners of coupes not sedans. While similar in design they will handle differently because they are different.

Thanks for all the input. Coupe info would be definitely helpful also.
