the S4 is the optimal choice for AWD at a decent price, while encompassing luxury. beyond that there is the subaru Legacy turbo coming out this summer...

im sorry your letting the Vette go, and if i had the money, i would jump on that like a pack of wolves on a lone sheep! unfortunately, i dont know anybody buying any new cars for that kind of sticker price... and the only one who is already has a ZR-1 good luck with the new house, and fiance!

No!! Don't get a S4! I had a S4 a few years back and the damn turbo blew on me! :x
Of course, it was replaced under warranty, but ever since the turbo blew, I had doubts about its ability to perform again (I'm a big track junky). If you want to modify your S4, you need to replace the turbos with KO4s.

In that price range, I would recommend a E36 M3.

An E36 M3 would be nice, but i think an S4 would be better for his situation, especially if it's going to be driven in the snow. Much easier to tune too. Simply chipping it gives it a lot more power. Turbos do go eventually and i haven't heard to many problems about S4 turbos going prematurely though. I'de go with the S4 all the way!

LOL - let's talk about this in 5 years...

You are selling your Vette - What is she sacrificing for the y'alls future?

Basically you are giving up part of yourself for her.. this will be awesome ammo when y'all have a big fight. You can bring up "You made me sell my Vette.. blah blah blah... "
