Question WRX in snow!

Well...he hasn't snowed yet here in D.C. but I am curious. How good is the WRX in the snow?? What depth of snow is the max for it?? 6 inches or less?? Or more....

Thanks!

The reason I ask is because I have a family ranch in Colorado and everytime we drive up the pass, all you see are Scoobies. Tons of WRX sedans and wagons.

That is so fun! No wait what's even more fun is breaking out all four around a corner and then passing an SUV. And your looking in your view mirror and they've got this "holy sh*t did he just do that" expression on their face. It should be one of those Master Card priceless commercials. Oh yeah scoobies rule in the snow!
