The ST are corrosion resistant where as the V1 are corrosion proof.
Given that I live in seattle, and its rainy 7/12 of the months here, snows on the occasion, is the corroision proof worth the extra bucks? Or go the ST route and save myself some money?

Ask yourself these question:
How long do you plan on keeping the car?
Is the savings of $200 worth the hassle of removing the coilovers if they do suffer from a corrosion failure?
If you plan on keeping the car for more than 5 years are you ok with purchasing new coils if you do have a failure? (ST's only have a 5 year warranty, KW has a lifetime warranty)
If it were me, $200 isn't enough of a savings to not get the superior product/warranty, but your values/goals may be different than me.
