When I had the opportunity to take the 2017 BMW 650i xDrive Cabriolet for a week-long test up in my neck of the woods, Central Ontario, we still had loads of snow and ice on the roadways and ambient temperatures were not exactly conducive for drop-top driving.

I must also admit that I was a little leery about taking this blue behemoth on local roads and highways until my walk around the car at BMW HQ in Richmond Hill showed me that the vehicle was clad with quality winter rubber. Regardless, the thought of a twin-turbocharged V8 powered and engineered to the nth degree machine during a week when temperatures would never scale above 0 degrees Celsius made me a little anxious.
