What tires? LOL

IOW, if you have snow tires on it, you may make it through a small stretch of powder. ;)

the elise is perfect for snow.

short wheel base. twitchy handling. low ground clearance. fragile body parts. poor visibility. horrible selection of tires.

go for it!!!

I drove my 111R through a major (for Southern England) snowfall last year and found as long as I didn't touch the brakes it went just fine.
