my friend lost control on his Z last winter and it was totalled. He was a careful driver but somehow managed to let this happen to his baby.
Also last winter, my friend drove me on his A6 (well not S5 but they're both AWD from Audi) and we drove thru 15 miles on ice, get on the bridges and so on with no problems. We kept seeing cars that went off the ditch or spun around the roads on the way to our destination.
I myself was having this debate before too, and decided to go with a Z (just a month ago). No personal experience in the snow/ice yet but i dont think i would wanna take my baby out very often in bad weather.
