Question for you more experienced car owners.

Ohhh, a Minnesotan! I was a Gopher for my undergrad. I'm from Wisconsin, and if you should get the sport package, you WILL have to buy new tires. I was completely stuck in one-half inch of snow here in Wisconsin. Seriously, could not get it to move. I had to wait to get salt under the tires and ahead of me to get rolling. Get the car, get a sport package just because it looks awesome, and people who may buy it from you down the road would probably want that. I would completely agree with getting a winter beater. I know our winters, and the front chin spoiler wouldn't even clear anything with "Winter Weather Advisory" criteria. Winter storm? You're idle no matter your tires. It's just so low to the ground! I love this car though, and as far as winter temperatures.... Mine ran perfectly when it was -15 this past winter. (My FX35 is my snow car.) Get it, but think about getting a spare car for the snow.
