Rear wheel drive preferred here. I just love to be able to kick out the rear end with just a blip of the throttle or a swift kick of the clutch.

I love RWD for really throwing a car around but for a DD i like FWD or AWD for a better all around driving experience. I picked RWD if anybody was curious. haha

I like to turn the wheel and have the car turn exactly to my input. That reminds me, I should probably get the Progress RSB. Damn college budget.

RWD all the way. One drive in my 240 will make a believer out of anyone. It's just as precise as the Fit, but a lot more fun. Most rear drives are heavy which makes people blame the slop on the drive, but it's the weight.

Drive a lightweight RWD like a Miata, 240, boxter, z4, etc and you realize that RWD is king.

Hmmm, RWD is in the lead

I have a preference to RWD, I just like the way it follows through on a corner. With FWD when you push to hard it plows and you lose your ability to correct.

not true...hop into a well balanced (read: very loose rear end) FWD car, and it does whatever you want it to.

I love the FWD for everyday comfort and mileage, but for fun I love the AWD and RWD cars. I'd love a '95 M3

Always wanted to hop behind the wheel of a Subaru to try it out and see how it feels when you really push it. On my list of things to do before I get old
