aw, this is just a terrible shame. those nasty ole front wheel drive cars have robbed an entire generation of the joy of having the back end slide around like god intended.

when i first got around front wheel drives, they scared the heck out of me because if had one with a little power (well, it could happen) and you goosed it on a wet turn the darn front end went diving for the ditch and there wasn't a thing you could do about it 'cause it was the steering part that broke loose. with a good honest rear wheel drive, you can goose it, break the back end loose and still steer just fine. spend a rainy afternoon in a parking lot with the traction control turned off and get a feel for the rear wheel drive. i think you'll feel a lot more confidence in the wet. by most standards, this car is actually very GOOD in the rain. (i.m.h.o....of course)
