RWD in the winter is fine, just have to be prepared for it. My old M3 with snows did just fine.

Anyway back on topic, car looks really nice!
Easier to pull then to push.

I am not saying they went to it solely for that but it was a reason. A RWD car with snow tires vs a FWD with snow tires, the FWD will work better.

Agreed, car is looking awesome
