i know a 370z would handle this better, but nismo worries me.
I don't have snow tires, but when the pavement started accumulating even frost in my neck of the woods... the Nismo was no longer a viable DD - not worth the risk for a $40k car.

I ended up purchasing a used SUV for the winter months. It's worth it to use as a grocery getter, dog hauler, and just a car you don't mind beating up a little in general. You won't be hauling many groceries or otherwise in the Nismo; I could pack more in my 350Z roadster than I can in my Nismo coupe. :P
