I would drive it in the snow because I simply cannot go six months of the year not driving it.We get weather here that can be sunny and nice in the morning, and snowing hard at the evening rush hour. I would only drive it in less than 4" of snow. I do know rear wheel drive cars quite well.I have driven Mustangs,G35 coupe,135I,Camaro,Corvette ect. I will get dedicated snow tires for it. Im not looking to use it as a mountain ski trip car just a commuter when necessary.
