Default First day driving the A3 on icy roads

Car performed wonderfully. Very stable, tracked straight ahead without being squirmy, tracked straight ahead when braking even with the ABS thumping. I was concerned about winter traction given the lack of quattro but thus far my fears were ungrounded. This was also the first time I actually was glad to have the Pirelli P6 Fourseasons. They did a pretty decent job on the ice.

Just thought I'd post this in case prospective A3 buyers are concerned about the lack of quattro on the 2.0T.
