Obviously you don't live in a place where rocks and chemicals beat the absolute shit out of your car in the winter. I have a beater for that and believe me it gets annihilated. Salt/chemicals are murder on your bushings and metal components.

I could say something similarly callous. "honestly imho the only reason to drive your M2 in winter is you can't afford a second car"

Now believe me if it was just snow and ice, I'd be out there.But it's not. It's brutal. I just can't ethically subject the M2 to that right now. Cold/crisp/dry day yep NP.

What's this about your kid walking and not being able to drive an M2? Wha? M2 is an awesome family car. Getting my kid in and out of it is super easy (seriously)
