Dont mean to bust your chops but its much more fun in the AWD lol.

Since once you lose traction more power is directed to the front wheels, you can actually execute perfect power slides around hairpins or do figure 8's in the snow without spinning out... I did it last weekend with this girl in my car around her neighborhood. FUN FUN

^^ yup yup...i had a jeep prior to the IS and i prefer AWD over RWD in the snow anyday...but the jeep was automatic so it wasnt as fun xD

Ehhh I'll take the extra 100 hp instead

^^you may think you get an extra 100 horsepower...but you only get about 60 to the wheels.

more like 80. stock is 250 makes around 175-180 at the wheels where as the is350 will make 255-260.

Coming from a 250 with that garbage 6MT to a 350 was the best thing that ever happened to me.
