Default Asphalt Driveway - Repave or Resurface?

I have an asphalt driveway which is in absolutely horrible condition. Teaches me to buy a house in the dead of winter when I couldn't really see the driveway well. Anyhow, a guy came by this week and said he could tear up the existing driveway and repave everything for $3,000. My bank account currently has $400 in it.

By next spring I could come up with the money ... but a colleague at work said I should investigate getting it resurfaced.

Anyone know what resurfacing costs compared to repaving? What are the drawbacks? If I were to go all out and pay for the repaving, how do I keep it from cracking again given the cold harsh Canadian winters?
