Have you ever driven either car in snow? That's my main concern I drove my T on ice once and it wasn't too bad probably because of the stall but I didn't get past 35. My G6 is alright in snow but sometimes it just spins if I'm taking off on a hill and it will slide around corners at times too but it stops pretty good on the slick stuff.

i've been in audi's, vw (4motion), evo's and wrx's in the snow. never my gn but plenty of rwd cars/trucks and a few fwd, and 4x4 trucks. natrually the 4x4 is the best.. as far as the awd goes..

its a toss up to what awd is better quattro or subarus. and i do mean dead even. a bunch of my friends and i went messing around in a snow storm. it seemed the audi and my friends sti were getting around (even when taking it easy) 10x better then the evo.  another one you might want to consider is the vw R32. alot of fun. the vr6 sounds sick too.

I set the cruise at 60 and roll my only complaint is getting in and out I'm 6'1" and its low to the ground and I'm old and broken plus being a 4 door the doors are small.

THis used to be my DD, but has been reclassified as garage queen since I no longer need it to tow my trailer.

Not presently, but who knows what the future holds.  Just can't talk the wife into parting with it yet.
