Yes, this point is correct, but has been overlooked in this thread for some reason.

All things kept equal, RWD > FWD. But application/execution plays a critical role. Hence, you can have FWD cars designed to out-handle RWD cars. Some good examples of FWD cars were mentioned already: Megane Trophy 265, Integra Type-R, etc.
