After looking for six months and almost settling for something close to but not quite what I wanted, I finally tracked down the answer to the following question:

What has 250 hp, 250 pounds of torque, a huge sunroof, can blast through snow, shock kids in mustangs, and haul groceries like nobody's business?

Pics and details to come tonight!

one of the RAV4 v6's?

would meet all the above requirements, the v6's dropped 0-60 somewhere around 6 seconds IIRC.

My pathfinder meets most of them... 240 hp, 265 ft lbs. shocks kids in civics at least.

No sunroof on mine (SE model with roof rack).

A boosted rally prep miata? I think being top down can count as a really big sun roof

Groceries dude, groceries.

I'm voting Forester XT. Total wolf in sheep's clothing.

This makes me think Mercedes Benz ML430, just because of the huge sunroof. But I think its putting out bigger numbers than you suggested. My dad had one, and it did everything mentioned here.
