I know FWD cars can be fast, it just some little things annoy me about FWD. I love my car, I really do. FWD is fine, it'* just there are some times that I'd like to have RWD.

When I try to pull out on a street quickly and I'm not even at half throttle, the tires are squeeling like stuck pigs. A RWD car wouldn't have done that, not at under half throttle. Maybe at full throttle, but when it'* rush hour and I want to actually get into traffic today, squeeling is an annoying result of half throttle.

FWD has some very good points, and so does RWD. I just think that a full sized car that is somewhat traget at performance should be RWD instead of FWD. RWD isn't that terrable in snow. Not as good as FWD, but not THAT bad.

Don't think that I'm a total FWD basher. FWD is fine for a Civic, I would just like RWD. But FWD is fine for now. It does the job.
