I have heard both ways on the mustangs and winter driving. A lot of people say that the RWD sucks, but then there is the argument that in the '70s everybody had rwd and they got around just fine. Just get good snow tires and some weight in the back. Personally though, I don't think it would be all that great. I live in northern Wisconsin and winters here are pretty bad. That's one of the reasons I sold my Pontiac Grand Am and got a Toyota T100. The T100 was awesome in the winter.

Anyway, I'm kind of considering just a regular Acura RSX and not the Type-S. I've heard that you can fit quite a bit in them with the rear seats down, so it would still be somewhat practical. Plus, I wouldn't need premium fuel.

But I'm still shopping around and looking. I'm not in a huge hurry. My boss is letting me borrow a vehicle from work in the mean time.

I definitely appreciate the suggestions and input.

Oh by the way I don't really like SUVs or wagons. They have their uses, but right now I want a car.
