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
Just to offer a different perspective, i haul groceries and drive in the snow with my Nismo, so it comes down to what your willing to do. Blizzaks on the Nismo make it def driveable, there are pics around the forum of a few nismo owners in the snow. Its not ideal, but its df tolerable if it only snow a few times a year
