I live in NYC too and this past winters was one of the worst ones we've had yet. My 335i w/ blizzaks on dedicated snow wheels took it like a champ. I admit, I wasn't able to park in some open spaces covered with snow, but even on some unplowed parking spots I didn't have a problem. Infact, after putting on my blizzaks I never even once got stuck and had to shovel the car out.

RWD FTW
I drove my E36 M3 with snows on all 4 wheels for years parking on DC streets (no garage) with a job that required me to be in Annapolis every day from January through April, snow, ice, or whatever. The only time I ever had a problem was when EVERYBODY was having problems, in a few of DC's legendary ice storms. Otherwise, I got around about as well as people with front wheel AND four wheel drive. Parking wasn't an issue, except having to dig out spaces.
