Anyone drive their panamera in the winter? How does the panamera handle in the snow?

Planning on driving mine in the snon here in Rochester. New York. But I have full car 3M Clearbra. I also, have 2nd set of wheels installed with all seasons for now. Will eventually get snow tires on them when I wear these down a bit. In rochester they clean the snow really fast. I've been driving my rear wheel drive Lexus LS460 for 2 last 2 years and had no problems except I had Snow tires on them for the winter. My first winter with the Panny Turbo.

In deeper snow/snowstorm or temperatures well below freezing, you will find your all seasons will lose traction.

AWD will help you track, but your stopping distance and probability of a slide that your electronic management system cannot recover from will be increased greatly without winter tires. This results in increased risk.

In deeper snow/snowstrom weather I plan on driving my Mercedes GL 350 Blutec. I realize all Seaons cannot match the peformance of Snow tires in snow. I will eventually get Snow tires on this set of wheels. Just couldnt throw away perfectly good all season tires which were brand new.
