Agreed. I'd like to see the aggressiveness of the AWD be adjustable a la the WRX STI...

Spend some time learning how to drive the beast. It is a game changer and you will love it once you have full control over the car in 1st and 2nd gear.

If with 560 hp you can't beat a pos car then the problem is with you not the car. AWD is a safety feature for people that can control their high hp cars. AWD can make even the poorest driver a better driver vs rear wheel drive cars where there is more true driver skill involved.
