Not sure. I'd probably have to drive one for a while to find out. I test drove a Focus ST and I liked it, but it was in the summer. I do generally prefer RWD or AWD over front wheel drive.So I had a Focus ST last year and it was great in the winter. HOWEVER, something didn't feel right, intrinsically. It was almost like the car was too good for only winter driving and you couldn't appreciate what it was only as a winter driver. I don't know if that makes sense. I would imagine, at least for me anyway, that a Fiesta ST would have the same effect as the Focus did for me. I doin't know, maybe I'm weird.
For me in the winter I like something that is still quick, still with a manual transmission, but I don't see the need to have it be overpowered like the GT350 is. That's why I like the Porsche 944. It fits what I want quite well (over than being an ancient POS). I think a newer 911 would be perfect for winter driving. In the summer they are too hooked up and seem a little under powered to me, but I think in the winter the amazing handling would be a blast.
