I honestly feel like RWD is a lot more fun and to a degree, more controllable than FWD in light/moderate snow conditions because u can actually feel what the body of the car is doing and adjust your steering/throttle accordingly

Rwd is always mote controllable. Rear wheels use their grip to push. Front wheels use their grip to steer. Fwd only uses rear wheels to lean on.

I grew up in New England with rear wheel drive. I spent several years driving my 1970 Chevy Camaro. Probably pretty close to the BRZ in the winter. Never had any problems with snows on the rear and regular on the front although 4 snows would have been better. Winter driving is all about planning ahead. Just don’t forget about the other drivers.

Also grew up in New England and I’ve had a mix of AWD and RWD cars and I prefer RWD. more fun and I sometimes feel like the front end pulls in a funny way on my AWD car (bmw XDrive) which upsets the balance and therefore makes it hard for me to control.

Back in 1978 Boston had a major blizzard. Over 3’ snow and driving ban for few days. Out of a dozen employees that drove home in it only three of us made it. Most got stuck in snow and had to abandon vehicles. Winter driving is common sense. That 1970 Camaro shouldn’t have made it with just snows on back when full size 4wd Jimmy’s didn’t. I grew up winter driving and use common sense.

For winter fun, no substitute for a well sorted front drive. AWD are fun too, but they'd have to be like my 2021 Kona (short wheelbase) with locked differential and traction off. However, I still have a soft spot for those old RWD boats that I grew up with. Back then, no snow tires, but we got around find with the long wheelbase and sandbag in the trunk.

@@domenicdilorenzo9694 Braking has nothing to do with which wheel the car drives on. Infact a lighterweight car with proper winter tires will brake and handle better. Main issue with this car is ground clearence and the driver. Get a narrow and higher profile winter tire, and lots of patience self control and you will be better than 99% cars out on the road.

Our parents likely drove 60-80's RWD . It wasn't until the late 70's early 80's when American cars switched to fwd. I worked on a lot of cars through the years with my dad and grandpa. There were no electronic tools like vsa, or traction control, and abs was new. Times just go round and round.

Dude long press your traction control when you want to screw around. Turn it back on when you don't have at least two lanes worth of room, otherwise you will curb it eventually. Try controlled oversteer at mild speed with plenty of room in snow, then in rain, then on dry pavement with summer tires. Good rule of thumb, if the traction control light comes on unexpectedly, you fucked up and the nanny kicked in. Coilovers and summer tires make these way more fun in that you can firm up the ride and feel more of the road. Don't waste your money on an exhaust until the open flash tablet guys have a good header tune, then throw on a header if you want a little bump in power. Cat-backs are for suckers who just throw money at making it louder.

Anyone who’s owned a RWD sporty vehicle knows how much fun it is, but at the same time, anyone who also has owned a sporty car that has power knows how fun that is. Unfortunately, the BRZ/FRS/86 lacks the power for me to enjoy the car, despite its RWD platform. I also think it’s handling is highly overrated, but I also own/owned vehicles (both RWD and FWD) that handle much better than it, so my perspective is different. Is the BRZ/FRS/86 fun? Sure. But only to kids who haven’t owned anything better than it. It’s like the car is made for first time RWD owners, because they get all giggidy by driving it, but believe me when I say, if they’ve owned cars much quicker than it, they would get bored real fast. **I understand this logic won’t apply to every BRZ/FRS/86 owner, but it applies to the majority of them.
@TheCarCreative

Your logic here is sound. I would be curious for you to hop in to the 2022, as I have driven both gen 1 and now own the gen 2, there is a significant difference in how it drives and the power is delivered. Both were fun, but this one does seem more mature. But ultimately, I agree that is a great first car, and for me I'm upgrading from a 2006 honda civic so the jump is significant and does indeed put a smile on my face. Additionally, what I love about this car is how approachable is is mechanically. I am not very savvy in this area so I'm looking forward to learning on a car that doesn't cost an arm and a leg for parts. Well rounded vehicle for any automotive enthusiast, and affordable for your average guy or girl to get into and get a taste of a great road car that could be tracked if you want for minimal upgrades. Thanks for your input here! Looks like your a VW owner? A car I also really love. Ultimately I'd love to get the new Golf R for a winter driver and keep the BRZ for spirited summer driving.
