You do need 4 quality snow tires, ie Blizzaks or Mich Artic Alpens.
Being that it is mid engine, the traction is quite good if you keep the power appropriate (it is not a Subaru!).
On the other hand, in deep snow, the car is very low so you can get stuck irrespective of the tires etc.
Lastly, many folks buy a beater for winter, as the corrosion issues, chances of accidents etc. make the risk too great.
As a dealer, I don't purchase cars from the snow belt as they are "beat up" much more so than say, cars from SO CAL and the South West.
The difference is remarkable.
Good luck
