Are you joking? What was wrong with it/him? 
 
Impreza = teriffic handling AWD 
Corsa = notoriously bad handling FWD

no im not joking,  
 
every wrx i have been in has handled pretty crap(standard),  
sti on the other hand is a different story. 
 
my corsa has good suspension that is far from standard. if his scooby was upgraded in the suspension department it would obviously be better.

Sorry but PMSL shut the fcuk up. 
 
Sports handle like boats ffs imprezza's have so much more road holding even if it has body roll it'll easily outhandle a corsa.

Agree... There's no way in hell a Corsa will outhandle a Preza unless its been tricked for the track.   
 
Regarding Imprezza's handling.  My cousin used to test drive for Toyota aswell as compete in various motorsport classes and is without a doubt the best driver I have ever sat with.  I thought I could chuck a car about and handle it pretty well but he is in another league.   
 
Anyway, his comments on the Scoobs handling was something like " they feel as though you are running with no rubber on the rims when you are above 100mph"  Personally Im not over confident about chucking a car about at those kind of speeds so I dont really know what feelin he's on about.   
 
But as std an AWD car will have far better road holding than a FWD car as said.
