OK I feel you… Hamburg and S. Buffalo can get hairy a few times a year thanks to lake Erie. AWD might not be a bad idea. At 32k per year gas mileage counts. I don’t care how baller you are, I’m sure you have better things to spend you money on than gas, even if it’s just coke from a hooker ass crack. Lookin classy, perhaps to satisfy if not impress customers?.. Alright… A Saab 9-3 with snows could be just about ideal. You say you don’t need fast, but lets me honest: A fun car would make those 30k+ years a lot more pleasurable. An SUV’s not a bad idea. They are more comfortable than cars, but no matter how you slice them they push a lot of air and thus don’t get good mileage. For now I’m going to vote slightly broken in 3 series bimmer or Lexus IS300. Fun to drive, decent on gas, nice looking, won’t depreciate a ton (I think, am I underestimating the mileage?), and should make all your driving pleasurable. I’ll go sleep on it and maybe come up with a better idea… Dude, you know your shit as well as anyone on here if not better. I’m sure you’ve already weeded out the crap cars and bad decisions. I’m sure you won’t make a bad decision, and cars are 99% of the time a depreciating investment so you can’t make a “good” decision. Get what you want. ---

i would honestly say grab a nice ass used volvo s40…i forget if those come in AWD, but you cant beat volvo reliablilty and comfort. not to mention the ballerness. you could def. get one in your pricerange easily. my second choice if i was in your shoes would be a saab 92x…awd, reliable , and fun to drive while lookin pretty sleak for a hatchwagon ---
