Snow Pictures

Really nice pictures, both cars look great

I too like the flag idea, and I think I'll use it as well except mine will say ///AMG in all the slots even the empty ones

What's it feel like to drive a car with that much horse in the snow???

Is the E any good in the slick stuff with good snows???

Be cool to PUNISH the ESP!! Bet the triangle just stays light all the time.

Snow immobilizes my cars. It's a nightmare to get caught in even 1/2" of snow.

In this picture the E55 was about 20 feet from the garage. thats the most winter driving it will see! The audi does miracles.

Yes, it is a porsche, but I thought these pics were stunning (from 6speedonline). Taken a few days ago when it snowed here in Seattle.

We just got a foot of snow overnite here !
Even my E430 4matic with snows was working the ESP overtime!
I put snows on the E55 but haven't tried it out yet!
I'll get some photos tomorrow!

You will need to host the pictures to another site(ex. photobucket.com) Then link it here. The attach function will only preview in thumbnails.

c'mon guys lets see em!
We have a very simular setup, LOL!

I attempted to park the benz higher up in the driveway, but I couldn't even make it, she goes side to side really well... LOL so its Audi time until I am convinced I won't see any snow or ice on any road. Anyone have an advice on driving AMG in snow? (low tread factory conti summer ties, lol)

Car is parked down the street in front of someone elses house
Audi sticks like glue even with BALD (I really really mean BALD) tires
