I'm happy with FWD. A set of snow tires is even better. 4WD will help go faster but does not help you stop. For most people save the gas money year round and buy a set of mounted snow tires.
My anecdote is from when I was driving across NH for school everyday. My little CRX with snows had no trouble all day long but I passed more than 10 4WD SUVs spun-out in the snow banks along the way in one day.
