 I dropped my wife off at a wedding, after driving her & 2 friends to the church.  There was 4-5 inches of snow already.  Cars slipping all over.  Not enough time to plow the roads yet.   The G35x was AWESOME.  Even with wider tires, the g35x's awd and the stability control literally disconnected me from the snowy road.  I have a 2000 subaru, and the AWD on that is great.  But this car would have blown it away.   The G35x is an incredibly competent vehicle.  Hands down.  It will cruise in great luxury, and will blast ahead of traffic when needed.   For sure there are cars that will beat every individual aspect of this car, but as a package, it is impressive as all get out!
