I'm looking to buy/lease a '97 M3.  Compared with sedans of similar
size, how does the M3 compare in poor weather handling.  Currently, I'm
driving a 1994 Eddie Bauer Explorer and this thing is all over the road
at the first sign of ice.

Also, if I lease a BMW and move to a different state (maybe due to the
ice & snow mentioned above!), do I have to return the vehicle to the
original dealership when the lease is up?  Is there a standard provision
for transferring locations in the BWM lease agreement.  Anyone know?
