I live in the southern part of Sweden, so usually there's at least a couple of weeks of snow. Last year, 3 months of it.
Winter tires is a must, studs or not depends on if you get a lot of icy conditions I'd say.
The e92 drives really good, and I'd guess the other E's would as well. I was actually surprised at how good it was and it's really predictable. With all nanny systems on, all you really need to do is point the car in the direction you want to go with the steering wheel, and that's where you would end up.
If you shut all the nanny systems off, it's very predictable and let's you know well before anything get's out of hand.
So for a rear wheel drive car, I'd say it's great. And sure, a 4x4 will always get the job done better. Stopping is always the some though, and that is usually the problem in real life situations.
