Brace yourself, winter is coming! Oh wait, it's already here. So what can we do other than to grab a some hot coffee, call up a friend with a video camera and go drifting.
If anybody asks why snow falls are "happy times" for some Subaru drivers, just show him this video of a BRZ at play. It was shot over the weekend by subaruwrxfan just so you guys can see 200 horsepower is more than enough power to have fun and not destroy tires.

The BRZ was co-developed with Toyota, but most of the engineering is Subaru's and they placed the weight low down for stability. The Japanese company says this makes it stable, so you can drive at relatively high speed on snow, despite this being RWD.

Maybe snow drifting should become an official winter sport. What do you guys think?

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
