Want to buy a car today but dont know which one to choose?

Im looking for a reliable car with low cost maintenance/ repair. I live in Wisconsin so I see snow about 4 months out of the year. im 22 and have only driven AWD except for maybe a couple of times in a light weight FWD car so not sure if I want a 2 wheel drive car. what are the disadvantages of having a FWD in the winter as oppose to AWD. Im looking at an 06 Acura TL FWD 20 mpg city, 06 Infiniti G35x AWD 17 mpg city, 07 Lincoln Mkz AWD 18 mpg city, 08 Chevy Malibu LT 22 mpg city. Im also gonna look and see if I can afford an 06 or newer Audi A4 and a Lexus IS 250. What do you think of Chrysler products such as the 300C AWD. Thanks
