Ok, I am buying a car for the GF in a couple weeks, but I would like to get her something that will be good in the snow, so AWD, but also good on gas. Hopefully at least 30mpg+.
Other then the Vibe AWD, what else is there I should be looking at?
Also, what is the first year of the Vibe AWD?
Thanks.

AWD and 30mpg? Do any of the AWD models do that?
All of Subuaru's cars have AWD. I think the Toyota RAV4 has one? Dodge Caliber has one or will. That's off the top of my head.

As far as I know, the Vibe/Matrix AWD get around 32mpg. So yes, some do.

its what i plan on gettin for this winter if i get the promotion im hopin for
if not, the cav will hafta do
Buy a GTO because AWD is a good 200lbs lighter then a GTO on a bad day. Just kidding, Subarus sound like fun in the snow so I'd go with that.

i hope you meant 3000+ lol
unless you got one heavy ass subie
And if ^^^that^^^ is above your pay range, look for an '88-91 (I believe) 325ix.
my vote goes to Subaru.

I'd say Subaru also, my mom just bought a Legacy just before last winter, and my g/f's mom just bought a WRX just before winter as well.
hmm, well my mom's is a 2005 Legacy, but she also drives school buses and now transit buses for a living, so I'm sure she doesn't notice it drives like a boat
and there other vehicle is a 2005 Sierra Z71
Dodge Caliber SRT-4 awd.
300hp and awd. Sits up sorta high so may be good for snow.
I kinda like that thing but not sure when that model will come out.
I am all that is man
the base Legacy is a bit of a slug, but the GT has quite a bit of get-up-and-go. i'd take an LGT(hell, even an LGT wagon...they're pimp!) any day.

suprised nobody said the Suzuki Aerio SX !?
a 2.3 DHOC 16-valve motor and the exact same power and TQ numbers as an Ecotec. 150hp/155tq...if you liked the power of the 2.4L Z24's and want AWD and reliability with a 100,000mile warranty you can't go wrong with the Aerio SX.....They move.
