I'm not an overly aggressive driver and plan on using this as my commuter car, +/- 80 miles a day, all year round (mostly expressway). I'm in West Michigan, so winter tires will be a necessity. I'd love to hear opinions of those with ownership experience, particularly those with some winter driving under their belts.

Thanks in advance!
From another Michigan driver, I would have another car that can handle the winter good if you plan on having your crossfire your daily driver.

Last year was my first year with my Crossfire, and I drive it every day. It's my only car, but when the snow came, I was stuck. It SUCKS in the snow, I don't think any set of snow tires or snow setup would help it.

I had to borrow my dads truck to get me to work and school.
