Re: BMW's Xdrive vs Quattro & 4matic
I would have settled for any one of these systems this past weekend. You haven't lived until you've gotten stuck in a RWD Benz after a 12 inch overnight snowfall and then had to shovel her out. A harrowing experience....though I still wouldn't trade a convertible for a wagon/sedan/suv!

ΒΜW fans are free to believe that xDrive is better.

Everyone else knows that quattro is still the best.

Re: BMW's Xdrive vs Quattro & 4matic
All I know is my Quattro machine has taken care of business so far this winter, half an inch of Ice? Bahaha! No chance. 1/2 foot of snow on top of that ice? Even better.

So what you will be wanting next is an SL with 4MATIC -- you never know, it could happen ...I imagine the next CLK will have it as an option.

Such a vehicle would be nice. I hear the CL is going to get 4Matic sometime next year too. For all their glory, RWD MBs and BMWs are really helpless when the snow is really deep, even with proper snow tires. Quite a site to see when its your Benz!

If they need such a video where THEY drive the competition car, it is to proove to tehemselves something..They don't feel safe with their xDrive so need to reassures themselves with a fake comparo...

Audi or Merc do not need such infantile thing...
