Is there a web site that allows you to filter all new cars on the market by 4WD/AWD?

At many car sites you can filter/sort the cars you want to consider for purchase by MPG, auto vs. manual, style (SUV, sedan, coupe, etc) and so forth. What I would like to do is consider only those models that offer either 4WD or AWD. So far, I haven’t found a site that will let me do this. Does anyone know of a site that does this?

If snow, rain or ice is a frequent companion on your daily slog, you’ll want to consider a ride with all-wheel or four-wheel-drive capability. These vehicles have what it takes to tackle the elements, and can hold their own on slippery roads without missing a beat. With rough-weather functionality in mind, we’ve compiled a list of our 10 favorite AWD/4WD vehicles.

1. Land Rover LR3: Land Rovers are known for their ability to hang tough, and the new LR3 is no exception. Combine that with handsome looks and a sumptuous interior, and it’s easy to see why we love being behind the wheel of this ‘ute when the weather turns icky.

2. Subaru Legacy: Subaru’s value-packed Legacy is a bargain from any angle. Its lengthy standard equipment list and impressive build and materials quality belie its reasonable price. And best of all, you don’t have to pay extra for all-wheel drive.

3. Audi A6: The A6′s available all-wheel drive makes sharp handling a reality in all kinds of weather. And we can’t think of a better perch from which to watch the snow (or rain, or sleet) come down than its opulent cabin.

I occasionally find “complimentary” local car magazines lying around in coffee shops, since most of these rags are given away free rather than sold or recycled. I was reading one of the “leading” ones (aren’t they all “leading?”), and saw an awful review that copy-pasted stuff from press releases. Do you really need to know whether the “knuckles” in the suspension system are made of steel or aluminium? Do you even care enough to know that a car has knuckles? I sure don’t. I turn the page and there is a review for another car, with no engine or gearbox details mentioned whatsoever. There isn’t even a specifications list, even while half the review is wasted describing how the car looks. We can see it in the photos, dumbass. And you guys get paid for such mediocre work? Didn’t you learn anything in your British journalism college? On another note, the latest update to our no-nonsense Ultimate Car Buyer Guide now has used car specs for the 2001-2005 Toyota RAV-4, the 2001-2005 Land Rover Freelander and the 1999-2005 BMW 3-Series. The pages for some new cars have been updated, including the Dodge Charger, the Hyundai i30 and the Skoda Fabia. On to the letters.

Shahab says: Hi, i love ur site i always check it but i have heard about lexus IS F from some friends i wanna know if its out and wats the price…thank you.

It is not sold here, even though some magazines here have copy-pasted stories about it without clearly mentioning this fact. – MHC

Ahmed says: The change you have made to the web site is prity good, but I miss one feature from the previous look, which is the ability to see all the cars model for one maker (i.e. if I look for Ford, I will see all Ford’s car) as the new version I have first to choose the care maker then the model then the year manufactuer. some times I don’t know the car name as it may be a new model , then I have to look for all the types to find it out, it is time consuming.i suggest to put small thumbnail of each type beside its name. also you can make a filter for cars type i.e. SUV saloon etc…thanks

I’ll keep those ideas in mind, although technical limitations (mainly our non-existent budget) don’t allow it for now. – MHC

Nauman Zaidi says: Hello Boss, I am plannning to buy a car upto 125k. Cars i have in mind are IS 300, G35, S-Type Jag, Lumina SS, Aurion & Dodge Charger. Not interested in best resell value, only want reliability and performance. which car would you go for, and abviously why? Thanx.

I am assuming you are buying second-hand? Because a few of your choices are beyond your range if new. The top performers are the G35, Lumina SS and Charger R/T. The Japanese cars are the most reliable. The American/Aussie ones are fairly reliable, but will have small issues. If you want a Jaguar, get the later ones, as you can read about their problems in the car guide. – MHC

Vasanth Benjamin says: Hey guys,This site is a masterpiece of its own and I think a simple thanks wont do the needful.I wanted to buy a car and for the last 3 months I have been researching many websites for information and opinions, I never got any useful stuff out of them, then one day i came across your site, and I felt this is the one am looking for. Every single detail small and big in one single website, and it sure made a difference, Now am happy to announce that I am buying my new Dodge Charger this month and thanks to Drive Arabia for their unconditional support.I hope one day my car and myself will be on the site in the side of the Loyal users forum.Thanks again guys, keep up the good work.

Good to know, dude. Enjoy your car. And spread the word. We are sort of non-profit right now (we don’t advertise ourselves) so word-of-mouth is the only way to help more people here. – MHC
