I find the opposite to be true, though I never put NEW snows on the e30. 
The e34 has a longer wheelbase and man oh man would I hang the end of that car out. I will never forget hitting full lock and bouncing limiter in 3rd on a curved single lane road with curbs on both sides. That was a magical day. 

The lifted e30 doesn't count in this opinion, because that is not a fair comparison. 

Can confirm the long wheelbase theory. My parents used to have a 2001 GMC Yukon XL, that thing is like 20+ feet long and I could hang the tail out in the snow and hold it there as long as I wanted. I'd love to go slide around in a 740il at some point, id imagine it's similar

Response to Snap's sun comment. Sun isn't broken, just some heater core issues...

For some reason I watched my truck run cold on the highway today. I'm thinking about getting one of those grill covers for it.

[jc43089]

Cardboard in front of the radiator, there was a baby peeping out my grill all winter last year from an old box of diapers.  Pretty classy.

lol that's awesome. Both our diesels do this every time it gets below 5-10 degrees.

[jc43089]

Oh, mine is gas, but tstat isn't good. And fan clutch is seized up, I have some parts, I should have fixed it when it was warm like I've planned on for the last 3 winters...

Also one of our hens hatched some chicks, just heard peeping tonight, bad timing lol. Coldest time of the year.

Cardboard in front of radiator was how I drove the e21 that first winter I had it due to a faulty tstat.

the e34 has been running just a tick over the blue due to a stuck t-stat for the last week or so...hopefully we can get some 30deg weather one of these weekends so I can swap it.  i should try the cardboard thing in the mean time!

When it runs it pours. Gotta wait for warm temps to fix Brooke's e36. Mean time she's driving the truck. Which means I get to be chauffeured around in my own vehicle.

don't you have a garage/space heater?
