To me its more of a safety thing, my second car is a 2006 Cobolt LS with high mileage. It is constantly in need of some attention, but its paid off. I am not really worried about snow or salt getting on my FR-S, but I am more worried about driving a rear wheel drive, lightweight, manual car in 2 feet of snow, which can regularly happen during the winter months. Plus my FR-S is lowered 1". I am fairly certain the FR-S would not bode too well in more than 6 inches of snow. I have had my FR-S for a month, and we are heading into the fall here in Indiana. I am thinking of picking up some winter tires on craigslist.com and doing some snow driving with the FR-S as a "just to see" measure. From my research, it seems Bridgestone and Dunlop make good winter tires.
