Im in the same weather system you're in, but decided to take it out yesterday since it was 9C (48F) out. You can really sense the bridgestones struggling at the lower temps and sloppy weather, and 9C is not even cold yet. Rear end sliding and skidding quite easily with just half throttle.

Weather was pretty good in the 30s I got close to the foothills and wet pavement with temps in the low 20s came quick. Car will easily spin through 3rd in those conditions.


Side note, getting e92 m3 vibes on the side view on the front end of these cars.

Yikes. The PS4S’ do not slip traction so easily BUT they feel like rocks in the low 40s. Luckily we do not experience long stretches of it and Blu will not stay parked for too long.

EveryDay Driver (in their first review) said the IS500 was spiritually channeling the e92. So the vibes you’ve felt are shared! 😎

It's a chilly day, and there is a boat load of traffic... yawn.
I freshly washed it yesterday, so it is staying warm in the garage today!

Looks amazing! Did you install yourself? I got mine ready to install along with a midpipe. Shop is closed until after New Years but I am considering doing it myself instead.
