The Itty Bitty NOVA VW Committee

[Senor_Taylor]

The GTI does very well in the snow... to a point. If you ever get stuck, just give up. Even with traction control all of the way "off" in my car, it will refuse to rev past 1500 if spinning in the snow, so you can give up any hope of muscling your way out of anything. Really disappointed. I guess it's for safety, but having the engine completely cut power like that is so infuriating. I hit some deep snow and the car didn't want to budge. All it needed was a little gas and some sawing at the wheel to get out, but it wouldn't let me. Modern cars are stupid.
