I personally have a mercedes ML55, even though it's quite fast and awd, but it's useless when it's in snow... I'm in LA now, but am from vancouver canada...it snows there in the winter... and I had a car accident while driving that suv in snow...

Since to reach such performanc, they need to use the sports tire instead of the tires we usually use for jeep, and that definetely is unsuitable for winter driving... and it cost a lot a lot a lot to just change the tire in the winter time....well...i was told that my ML cost around 2000 just to replace the tire since the size is specially made, and they had to back ordered it...

samething applies to porsche, why get such high powered jeep when you can buy a TT and have even greater driving experiences... but not an automatic...especially on a jeep, which you can simply kick other car's *** "only a straight line"... but got *** kicked when cornering...."well happened to me" i lost to a my friend's boxter...(not even S)... and i couldn't even see his tail light...
