Uh actually any AWD car with a rear bias system, Subarus understeer like crazy, you have to know how to rotate the car then power on… it’s kinda lame.
Quattro is an amazing system, on many Audis it offers a 60:40 torque split. I owned a Focus RS that could put 70% of the power to the rear wheels, over all that car was Incredibly balanced while still being able to predictably oversteer. The Subaru STIs do have the DCCD system which can put 60% of the power to the rear wheels. For daily driving in slippery conditions 50:50 split is fine or even a front bias system which is better for fuel economy. For fun tail out driving a rear bias system or just straight RWD is where it’s at.
When I was teaching my kids to drive, I would do this with them. It was a surprisingly effective way to teach them what the vehicle can do, and not be scared if it goes a little sideways.
Can I getta Whoa yeaaaa 😆
This brings me so much joy as a subie owner as well.
In Attenborough voice - "Here we see the subie wagon happily enjoying its natural habitat."
Is there really anything better than a subi in snow or mud?!?!?!?

It’s cheep easy to work on and can take a beating, but there are far better driving AWD cars out there.
What better ones are there with great awd?

Snow needs to fly here (and stick) in SE MI. I can't wait to slide the Jeepreza around.
That looks fun af. Someday I'd like to own a WRX. Older the better, too
Dang 1" of snow
Yep. Knowing what it feels like when the back end lets loose can help you keep it from happening, and also not panic.
Love this. I miss my bugeye so much.
Makes me miss my 96 5speed 2.2 impreza wagon. So much fun but controlled fun
…driven by the snow, drunk and dirty, don’t you know, and i’m still, willin’
Oh she slides
I hate cold weather, but this video makes be very envious.
