I find the Boxster to be terrific in the snow.

When it slides (usually intentionally based on the driver's input), its very predictable. I find it tracks very straight, and also climbs hills exceptionally well for a RWD car.

I run dedicated snow tires on 17" wheels.

The Boxster is night-and-day better in the snow than any BMW I've owned. I believe its better than my wife's FWD Honda with all-season tires.
