Winter Driving in the Snow Belt?

How many of you drive your C4 12 months of the year in areas with appreciable snow? I'm trying to decide between a C2 and C4 and whether the car is a suitable daily driver in cold snowy climates like CO or MN. It seems a shame to leave the car parked 5 months of the year, on the other hand, maybe thats best??

When I had my 997 Carrera I drove it all year round as it was my only car. I love in the Greater Toronto Area and we of course get our fare share of snow. It's a great car in the snow with the proper winter tires. My 991 has SPASM and I do put winter tires on it and take it out in the cold weather although I have another car as my DD nowadays.

Get the 4!
Awesome in the snow ... In fact the best 4 Wheel Dr. for snow .
I've had 15 years of 911--4's in Canadian winters.
Once or twice a year there may be a big storm where the snow was just too deep for the car.
Otherwise the handling is great-- even on rainy wet roads
