2002ish Porsche C4S - (~$42K) Would stay pretty much stock, maybe some Turbo parts - such as brakes, suspension, but nothing crazy. Dunno if I would drive all year, but would be on the road all year. These cars are pretty awesome, however do come with a steep maint cost, especially lower cost ones with higher mileage.

I have done some thinking about a 996 as a year round daily, and think that dropping down to a C4 would be a better move. Smaller brakes will be easier to fit a reasonable sized Winter wheel/tire combo over, yet it will still be fantastic, because it is a Porsche. A bit more affordable too!
