Subaru has a decent AWD system, but Quattro is superior.

Are you sure Quattro is torsen based? I used to autocross in a TT. I'm 100% sure it was haldex. Ironically, I had a haldex controller installed (HPA in vancouver can do amazing things to VAG cars) such that the haldex acted more like a subaru symmetrical system.
On topic, I'm 100% behind new Santa Fes. Massive bang for buck with the direct injection, torque vectoring AWD, tons of sweet options. My sister rescued me in hers when I got my subaru stuck during that december snowstorm.
