Default c class in the snow?

Just wondering how your non-awd (4matic) c class runs in the snow. Wondering if it preforms like a fwd or if it takes awhile to get going.

Depends on what tires an individual has on the car....and also weight on the rear axle makes a difference. I put sand bags in my 280's trunk, a total of 180lb (3x60lb) with a bias to the passenger side. With that added to my driving expertise, my car drives better than a Subaru or an Audi Quattro.

Well....if my girlfriend is driving, she can flip a tank on a flat dry surface.

So it all boils down to the driver and how the driver configures the car.
