LOL, just buy a evo or wrx sti. That would be most cost effective. Really.
Pretty stupid thread, sorry but it is...

None of the above. If you have the cash to spend, opt for the 350 and don't worry about the snow.

^ i second that.
If you'd spent such cash, just buy a 350 and also another sub $20K suv for the snowy weather.
If you really want an awd sporty sedan that has 300+ hp, get the BMW 335xi or audi quartro.

I think it would be easier to supercharge an IS250 "If they come out with one".
