I love driving RWD in winter, especially a good one with a torquey V-8 and a manual transmission like my BMW 550i. It handles so amazingly well in the snow, so effortless. Obviously, high quality winter tires like Nokian Hakkas are an absolute requirement.
Pros: amazing handling, effortless

I dailyed my E36 BMW with just a pair of Blizzaks on the rear, got me through Wisconsin winters.

I wanted a drifty car to put known amazing snow+ice tires on (Nokian Hakkapeliitta) and wound up with a BMW e36 with the small 6cyl. The tires made it way, way less drifty than I’d hoped- even in 10” of heavy lake effect snow, it just grunted along like it was raining & 50°F. I didn’t even have to wait for the snow plows because *it plowed the snow*.
Pros: less drifty, good in deep snow

I had Blizzak WS90s on my RWD BMW for all five years I owned it. My wife has an AWD SUV with all weather tires. She drove the BMW once in the snow and was shocked to find she felt safer in it than her SUV. The only real advantage AWD gives you in the snow is traction to get moving. Once you’re moving, which wheels are propelling you is much less important. What becomes important then is your ability to stop and maneuver. And that is dictated by your tires.
Pros: felt safer, good stopping/maneuvering

My 535i with the 740d thermostat sits at 90-95 during normal use, even sat stable at 95c during 40c weather in traffic. When beating on it in the mountains got it up to 99 at like 28c ambient.
Pros: stable 90-95c temps

Ik heb onlangs precies hetzelfde gehad bij Autotaalglas bij het vervangen van de voorruit in mijn BMW. Ik ben toen overigens wel voor een originele BMW (Sisecam) gegaan maar ook bij mijn licht/regen sensor zat er toen lucht onder. De week erna ben ik gewoon teruggegaan en heb ik dit laten zien bij diezelfde Autotaalglas vestiging. Werd ter plekke kosteloos keurig netjes opgelost terwijl ik wachtte en het heeft nog geen half uur geduurd.
Pros: probleem kosteloos opgelost
Cons: lucht onder regensensor
