Personally I think you would have to be insane to own one as your ONLY means of transportation in a location that has snow for what might months at a time.
I have no doubt with the right tires it can be made to work but why? No thanks. I don't even like driving in FL in hard rain if I have a choice. Visibility top up sucks and even if you're NA you can get the rear end to step out easily.
If you were a current owner and were moving, that's one thing. As a new owner, I think you'll be hating yourself going into winter.

I am going into my 3rd Toronto winter with an AP1 and Dunlop Wintersport m3 tires. Nothing but good things to say and the fun factor is EXTREMELY high!
In really bad weather you have to just use some extra caution and be smooth and quick to react with all driver inputs.

I just put on my AP1 wheels/Blizzak WS60s this week. First winter with the s2k. I'll report back if I'm still alive!
