The Alcantra is nice & snuggly in the cold. We've already had a couple of hard freezes and the seat heaters are getting a workout.

Note: The stock tires get really hard below about 40 degrees, which can lead to some lurid slides (don't ask me how I know this). Last weekend I fitted snow tires on base wheels and put away the sport wheels for the winter. Now the car feels really "loose" as you might expect with all that squishy rubber, but at least I have traction.
