I drive the Boxster year round. It does very well in the snow.


You already heard the good advise -- get some dedicated snow tires.


The Boxster accelerates and climbs in the snow better than the front-wheel drive Honda Odyssey. You can deliberately slide it in a very predictable way. The car's balance makes it a blast to drive in the snow. Just avoid the deepest snow (clearance is low) and you'll be just fine.


Also, consider buying a hardtop, it definitely helps in the winter months.
