MY first choice would be a 1984-1987 Audi 4000 quattro, with the appropriate snow tires, sized correctly. I've had a couple of those and they have run rings around anything else I've owned, 4WD trucks included. With the right tires for the type of snow, it was not unusual to be able to use full throttle in first gear without wheelspin. I know the 4000 didn't have a huge amount of power....0-60 was 9 seconds... but still, it was pretty amazing. Tires are a huge part of the equation.

I have zero experience with Subarus, so I can't compare them directly.
