I drove a 5spd 900S and a 5spd 9-3 around Toronto area, in heavy traffic, and never had a problem because of the way the torque is set up. I essentially started in 2nd gear, and moved up to third occasionally. And felt I was in control of the car in the snow.
Now I am in an automatic 9-5SW, because my better half can't drive stick. Live isn't as much fun. Would love to have a stick wagon, just for me, but that's dreaming.
I like the way the sport setting can at least give me a bit of ooomph when I want to have a bit of fun.
Go stick - thieves have a harder time driving standard, if they can figure out where the ignition key is, eh!
