Would you be selling the GTA if you were going to get another vehicle for winter driving? If so, that helps offset the costs of another vehicle. If not, you may want to consider snow tires/wheels for the winter. I drove my supercharged 93 Z28 as a daily driver and the 00 SS with regular tires. Neither did well in the snow so I would stay home. But these last 2 winters are pretty extreme and that's why I got the Z71. If you do get something else, check the brake lines closely!
