I keep it off in dry conditions, but when it rains I can only accelerate at a snail's pace without it.

not wise for me to turn it off in winter even with winter tires, my car always wants to go sideways when i give it some gas on snow.

it's a 335, i would probably leave it on in the winter too.

i did get stuck going up an icy hill once, the DTC basically killed all the momentum i had, so i had to turn around and gun it up the hill to make it

no snow or ice in miami...it just finally got cold out (69 degrees fahrenheit)

I'm doing track/driftdays and the Nordschleife now and then, and I'm glad I can put it on/off whenever I like.

We better discuss why there isn't a stock limited slip diff available yet instead of reading this stuff for over 1000 times imho....

So I voted: I really don't care
