AWD? Or 4WD? There is a big difference. Many who swear by one don't care for the other. The most gently used Subaru, Rav4, or CRV I could find would be my choice for AWD. For 4WD, the 4Runner, possibly some of the Jeeps. If I were buying 4WD though, I think I'd look towards a truck.

With the name of "thefastlife", get either the Audi A4 2.0T quattro or the Lexus RX 330 Base.

I'd look into the last year (2012) that Toyota outfitted the Rav4 with a v6 engine.

I'd get an Infiniti G35x.

They depreciate fast, so used ones can be had for $15K. I have one now and it's incredible in the snow with good all-seaons, and with snow tires it goes anywhere.

I hate SUV's, and wanted a car with HP. Oh and I have 160K miles on mine with no real issues

15k. AWD. Most well rounded, and you're looking at SUVs.

Go buy a 2004-2006 Porsche Cayenne S with under 100k and you'll get luxury, power, great onroad and offroading ability, and excellent reliability.

Some good ones on autotrader right now that are well under your budget, meeting your criteria.
