My 22 WRX was also good in the snow, there was times where people were getting stuck especially on hills and I would just cruise by with no issues. I had pilot sport all season 4 tires which are only meant for light snow and I had no issues.
Pros: good in the snow
Vehicle:
Subaru
Years ago I was door dashing, had a really nice set of snow tires on my legacy. That thing is a beast in the snow; one lady came to the door and apologized for not having shoveled. I handed her food over and said "no worries" and brapped my out of her driveway while she watched me essentially plow it with my bumper, easily walked thru 8+ inches of snow without missing a beat.
Pros: beast in the snow
Vehicle:
Subaru Legacy

I have a winter wheel set with blizzaks on it. Everyone drives slow as fuck and then there's me mobbing in a snow storm like the roads are clear. Make a hell of a difference.
Pros: Make a hell of a difference

I swap wheels/tires twice a year running summers on the stock wheels and winter Michelin snow/ice on 17 basic black wheels. Car handles snow in New England like a dream.
Pros: handles snow like a dream

I ended up replacing the radiator *and the hose*s myself with a denso radiator.

I will not trust having a Subaru battery in my Subaru cars, I only buy Walmart, Costco or Interstate.
Cons: untrustworthy, short life
Vehicle:

I got Pilot AS4s for mine, thinking I'd be good for... *ALL* seasons. The Pilots were solid for that winter. Come next winter and I'm thinking I'm good to go. Nope. Mine was legit dangerous.
Pros: solid for one winter
Cons: dangerous after one year
Vehicle:
Subaru
Mileage: 11000 km
I installed a Gates timing kit on my 2011 2.5 N/A 5 speed manual 50k miles ago (150k total). The belt snapped while I was doing 80mph on the turnpike. My valves were bent with deeper internal damage more likely than not.
Cons: belt snapped, engine damage
Vehicle:
Subaru Impreza
Mileage: 80467 km
