Any car can have TQ and decent gearing to feel that way. Especially in lower gears. It still isnt anything if it can handle a little bit at least.
I have always loved the the 04-06 Forestor XT but would be afraid to actually own one cuz I hate driving big cars, even family sedans. So while people love them (its basically the sti chassis and engine with a smaller turbo) it does have that higher center of gravity and may still let me down. And you know what they say about meeting your heros
