    The real question is, can you use it to your full potential?

    I was always under the impression that RWD is always preferable in a sports car. I didn't think that this was debateable but I guess I was wrong.

    I see lots of people saying that in some scenarios FWD can be as good as RWD but are there any scenarios in which FWD is better?

    RWD or I do not care. When they build FWD Ferraris, Lambos let me know.......

    I've had FWD, it is for efficiency and to save costs. Yes you can make a FWD fun etc but give me the PROPER RWD setup please.

    Hell just for the look, staggered wheels on RWD looks superb. This new trend of Staggered on FWD is so lame its pathetic.

    When Porsche with their racing history goes FWD, let me know....

    I don't ever remember a successful FWD supercar so that's enough for me to know its lesser when compared to RWD. If I'm wrong I'm sure someone will let me know.
