Don't have the LSD but snow mode works very well if it is slippery/icey, I find normal mode works better sometimes because the traction control does not kick in as much to slow your get away.

Default mode, full acceleration in about 3" of snow - smooth but the traction indicator flashed and the delivery was noticable choppy (but not intrusive).
Snow mode, full acceleration in about 3" of snow - very smooth and progressive.
Default mode, cornering (trying to fish-tail) - back end stepped out a bit (a foot or so) but recovered pretty quickly with noticable help from the electronics.
Snow mode, cornering (trying to fish-tail) - nothing, kept the turning arc but I could definitely feel how the various components of VDIM were keeping everything in check.
Default mode, highway - solid, no comments other than perfect.
Snow mode, highway - felt really subdued, vague so I switched back to normal mode.
Anway, I have to say that this vehicle is the most sure footed RWD vehicle I've ever driven - now I am not a professional magazine driver but I've had my fair share of cars. I'm impressed.
