Default winter dd or more mod's?
With the winter comming I'm starting to think more and more about how I don't want to drive my boosted s in the snow or on salt covered roads. My wife does have a awd car and it would be a bit of a pia but somewhat managable to share.

I really want to get a hardtop and some nice wheels, which those alone are about the cost of a beater.

Should I just continue driving the S and when I need her car just deal with it and then get a hardtop and save my money for spring to get a set of sick rims?

DD aren't just for Winter. Also, consider the cost or cost SAVINGS of adding a DD / beater to your insurance policy.

Get a daily driver just don't have the itch to mod THAT. If you do then you're not saving anything.

Daily drivers FTW! Super winter car, heated leather sport seats, rides like a dream. Replaced the S2K with this after my loss.
