Besides, I would feel like a loser driving a Ford Edge... But on the beater topic, I have a winter truck lined up already and good storage for the 370, so the RWD is a non-issue, and it is cheaper to just get a $500 beater than try to track down decent snow tires. One of the biggest issues with getting a WRX or an STi is the fact that I can't seem to track one down that is within a reasonable distance. Even in Florida they were few and far between. The price and availability have both boosted my enthusiasm, and it's one beautiful car too. Lastly, the seating isn't an issue. My parents feel that having more than one friend in the car will be the biggest danger, they are very welcome to a useless back seat. Thanks for the help everyone!

Just curious what your job is at 16 that you can afford a Z and a winter car? I'm interested in whatever it is that you're doing bringing in the cash/saving up your pennies. My first job only paid ~400 a month and that was at age 18. Although that was 10 years ago (!!)
Hey hey, don't bash the Ford Edge. Derek Jeter drives one and he totally has an Edge. 
It'll be nice to have another Z around in NYC though that's for sure but  of whichever car you get!
