Hey all!

Looking into options for my gf with the Mazda 3 GS. Was debating between the FWD or AWD option ($4000 CAD difference between the two but AWD comes with luxury package). She lives out in Montreal Quebec where winters can get a little rough sometimes. Would just FWD with a good set of winter tires suffice with the Mazda3? Or should she try to save up more for the AWD option? Trying to look into the most budget friendly option but also suitable for the area she lives in.

Note: she also commutes 45mins to a smaller city for work if we are taking in gas mileage into consideration as well

    I’m in Quebec City and I love my FWD 2014 and I got a very good set of winter tires, but every winter I long for my old AWD IS250. It’s not I would’ve paid an extra 4k in a heartbeat if the option was available for the 3rd gen M3 back then.
