Hey, guys I'm planning on buying an is300 but I dont know how it handles in snowy weather. If someone could shed some light on this for me .thanx

 

lots different than a wrong wheel drive car.

 

Like garbage. It's a RWD car. Not too many of them handle well in snow.

 

Its Virginia, just call in sick on the day we have snow.

 

aww come on. dorifto

 

ill take FWD over RWD any day in snow.

 

4WD

 

It isn't actually that bad in the snow. When I had mine a couple years ago I drove it back and forth to work in the snow up here in NoVA. Did just fine. Mine had snow mode that helped out when you would accelerate from a stop. Just don't drive like an idiot and you should be ok.

 

It did ok because you lack torque.

 

hell, doesn't even take much snow, either

In general, RWD + snow = less than ideal.

It's going to be a pain in the ass, so accelerate slow, drive slow, and in general, take your time unless you like kicking the ass end out all the damn time.
