You can drive a 516lb-ft rwd beast in the snow

I was pleasantly surprised by how well the E55 handled the conditions on today's drive into work. On winter performance tires, the big Benz finds better traction than my previous S2000 (with all the torque of a lawn mower) on similar rubber.

I have my E55 on Dunlop Graspic winter tires (non-performance), haven't driven it on the snow though...
