I drove mine through much of the winter last year, on all season tires. It handled just fine. It is a good winter car. I warmed up a bit, without issue, then drove it, keeping revs low until warm. Only issue is road rash along the front lower cover. Be sure to keep it salt free. On warmer days, get to a car wash with a wand, and spray out those wheel wells. Then in spring, get the car off the ground, pull the wheels, take out the liners and give it a real good cleaning (do that anyway, even if you don't drive it in winter).
