The smile on my face while crusing in 6" of snow is priceless.
Did the same thing... but we had closer to 18" of snow. I did have to clear a little area to get room to open the door, but the car just drove right out of the driveway without spinning at all.

oh... this was in the Subaru . Porsche hasn't moved since October. Blizzak's are all the better with AWD

The last snow storm I was on literally bald all seasons, the tire shop was amazed that I drove it there. They didnt have snows for me though, so I drove home.

I now have sams club generic Goodyear Pacemark Snowtrackers, but havent had any fresh snow to test them on. They are great on the remaining ice and snowpack though.
