hmm well it depends what you like....

i WOULD ditch the subaru having seen what happens to them in crashes (rear quarter impact that didnt even take the bumper out on the other car twisted the shell on one i saw recently!)

when it comes to stopping in snow then rwd probably has the edge as you can slow on the engine and the breakign will tend to keep your straight...

when it comes to going FWD probably has the edge as the weight is over the driven wheels...

when it comes to turning personnally i think thats down to hands on the wheel and anyone who turns with power on in snow...well its goign to end in tears...

i have driven 945 in the snow and 850's and found both ok - if snow was my primary concern i would go 4*4 you cant beat it!
