there are absolutely no good STI's here for cheap...I know because three of my friends have them and had to go outside of Qc to find anything half decent. The ones that are cheap are all abused by young kids or wtv. Only decent ones are more expensive than a Z would cost me and they just aren't as fun or as nice looking. Also my current car is lower than a stock Z, never had any issues with plowing. I'm only worried about the whole RWD thing. But have read mixed reviews (most ppl say slap good winter tires on and go for it)

I hear ya on the STI, people love to beat the crap outta those cars. If you don't think snow plowing will be an issue, a Z with good winters will be a ton of fun to drive in the cold. If you are really worried you can also get studs put in.
