It isn't actually that bad in the snow. When I had mine a couple years ago I drove it back and forth to work in the snow up here in NoVA. Did just fine. Mine had snow mode that helped out when you would accelerate from a stop. Just don't drive like an idiot and you should be ok.

It did ok because you lack torque.

In general, RWD + snow = less than ideal.
It's going to be a pain in the ass, so accelerate slow, drive slow, and in general, take your time unless you like kicking the ass end out all the damn time.
