RWD Bonnies???
Anyone ever heard of RWD bonneville (85 and newer). I'm sure the idea is impractible and not really possible, but I think just the idea would be interesting. I know I would have a lot of fun in a RWD bonnie.

How would you think the car would perform with RWD? I have read in Car & Driver that those new Bonnies pack a powerful punch with that Cadillac engine in them.

You know this brings up a funny story. I was looking through a car sales catalog back when I was first looking at Bonnies and found a Red 94, similar to mine, with a 350 V8 RWD conversion. They only wanted 15k.

RWD is technically a better system for driving. There is a little bit more to learn to use it properly, but if you know how, there is more control then FWD. That is why most Cop cars are still RWD.

86 and below Bonnys are RWD...
I do remember the LeSabre T-Type, that was a coupe model with a sporty package.
