I hit up my wife's office lot in Winthrop...off the main road with some light posts for fun. I never realized how easy it was to control my car while still going sideways! I'm not a pro by any means; this was the first time I ever took the car out to the lot after some snow. I was able to keep the car in a drift three times around a light post without any problem at all...granted my car probably didn't like staying first gear at about 5000 rpm for the period of time. All in all, I guess that best way to put it is that the impreza is so incredibly predictable whether I'm driving in summer weather, during a snow storm or having fun in the parking lot!
