CLS in Winter

Just curious if anyone here has any experience with a CLS in winter time where it snows? I live in Chicago and am trying to find a nice AWD daily driver, but most of them in my price range are boring looking. I like the looks of the CLS alot, but don't want to get it if it's just gonna get stuck with every dusting of snow. Thanks for the help.

I feel its doable as long as the car's suspensions hasn't been altered with. Possibly some wheel spin though

You'll need snow tires for the best traction in a car that big. They come stock with mediocre tires. You'll get from A-B on them, but with white knuckles. For the cost a good set of snows is the best way to go. Call me if I can help.
