If I go FWD I’d just need to get snow tires and I’d probably be ok.
I like the Mazdas I’ve driven, but the 3 might be too small for my family.
I’ve always liked BMW but I’ve heard they’re a nightmare to maintain?
And I get the Subaru cult following lol. Once you drive one it really is difficult to drive something else. The sound of the boxer + that awd system is quite the treat. I hear the engine issues are behind Subaru but the cvt is still questionable. Especially when I saw someone’s bill to replace it and it was 11k! Yikesss

Sounds like AWD is basically a must-have tho.

Does it have to be a sedan? The market is so saturated with small / mid SUVs...little more ground clearance, lots of AWD, etc.

Just a thought.
