my only complaint is, in slick conditions and with a manual transmission, sometimes itll cut the power severely, and if you're not careful, you'll stall :-/

I know what you mean, but really, in the Forte's manual transmission, you always have to be careful not to stall! It's a touchy clutch. :s

my sx koup made it through 2.5ft tall snowdrifts all winter where i am...just turned the traction control off and pointed her where i wanted...no problems! very impressed so far with the over all handling and control of the sx :)
 
I got my koup 2 days before a 15" snow and never took it out. It was just freshly washed and waxed and didn't want to get it diry just yet. Well, turns out I may get to test it out in the snow tomorrow. Sounds like we are supposed to get another 8-12". Fun stuff.
 
We've had higher than average snow fall here this year...as have most places. I'm sick of it. Growing in Houston, TX...I'm not used to this crap.

The car drives great in it, but I have a hard time making it up my driveway when I get home from work. I've found that it does a lot better in reverse up the driveway though. Once the snow is shoveled off, it does great.

ya dont say?! lol im messin ;)
 
Maybe stalling is an SX thing... My EX just won't stall unless I try really hard. On level ground, If I let out my clutch and don't press on the gas, the car keeps moving without stalling... How? I have no idea. I shifted to second, the car jerked forward and sped up a little, but no stall... Same with third.
