So we got about 13" of snow today, we have been lucky as this is our first real snow storm with a foot or more. The roads were semi-clean meaning they started to plow them but the road was still filled with compacted snow. My street had started to clean the snow but left banks up which I had to plow through and the car did not stop or get stuck in it.The AWD system is amazing this thing held its own in the snow, if anything I blame the tires for most of the grip problems it had which is expected. Love this thing though although I think I'm getting a SUV over the summer as I'm not driving my car in this weather again.
What tires come with your car? I have Michelin Arctic Alpin on the wife's RWD Jag S-Type and it goes great in snow. She went out at 8 AM and had no problem. I just have regular Pirelli P7's on my LS, but I don't have to go out until the roads are clear.
And talk about March in like a lion!

Hope that works out, and congratulations on the 500, BTW! Way overdue (been meaning to write for a while)... Enjoy it!
