Nothing like driving a STi with dedicated snow tires in the fluffy stuff. WRX is not quite as good, no limited slip front diff...but still pretty good. I'm sure Audi Quattro would be just as good or better, but I have no first hand experience with Audi. I can say this...the 2008 STi, the 2007 STi, and the 2003 WRX that I had with snow tires was hands down better than my 2005 Jeep Liberty(with Goodyear Wrangler HP's). Subaru. You really can't go wrong!
