I've owned 2 RWDs, 2 FWDs and a quattro...the RWDs handling and driver feel are tons better hands down.
I have to agree. I have owned lots of cars, and all of my RWD cars have been more enjoyable to drive with better driver feedback. You also don't get torque steer which usually plagues high horsepower, high torque, FWD cars. Anyone who has ever driven a Mazda Speed3 knows what I am talking about
