I drove around a lot with a friend of mine in his BMW 3-series when we got hammered with 12"+ of snow a few weeks ago, and it handled as well as my wife's FWD civic. I actually thought it was FWD at first.... It is amazing how far RWD technology has come.
I would think that those of us that live in snow-prone areas will have no problem driving the car in the winter.... However, I will probably still get winter wheels as the last 4 winters have really done a number on my truck's rims...

The 4thgens did have traction control. I have seen a couple of LS1s on the road with snow tires and steel rims. But not many. Where I live, 4th gen owners put their cars away. The Mustang guys drive their cars in the winter more, from what I've seen.
