Default Next POS Commuter Car

I commute to work 160 miles per day. The current 97 SHO has 145K miles and I am thinking next year will be time for a new POS. Looking for some suggestions. I am really looking to go RWD next time as Frnt wheel is a PITA to work on and the only way to change a trans is by dropping the sub-frame.


Criteria:
-Manual trans(or a car with an easy to swap auto trans)
-22+ MPG HGWY
-Rear wheel drive
-Mechanic friendly(as in easy to work on not as in mechanics loved them because they always break down)
-200K+ mile capability
-under 6K in cost
-Must be "snow friendly"/ will be running snow tires.

Any suggestions? Smartazz comments welcome
