@Mavik have described his experience and opinion on RWD "driving pleasure"
Perhaps you guys might wanna share yours? rolleyes.gif

Well, I'm driving a RWD car now without any traction control or VSC features at all, and I'm happy with my decision. The reason I choose to buy RWD car because I'm just totally bored already with FWD cars where it always understeers on the throttle, that's all. With the RWD car, now it handles more neutral. Of course not necessarily faster and surely not safer, but I just like the driving feel better and won't go back to FWD, at least for now. If I were to change again, I'd only go for AWD.

Actually that is my thoughts as well! Looking around for a 4WD or AWD car to play around as well.

Hey me three!!
Haha just being a busybody.
My first car was a KE70 with transplated 1.5L engine. Manual and very crude RWD without any three letter words system assist. Being very young at the time, often underestimate risks. It was very easy to reach its limits of oversteer. At the crosspoint between being in control and losing control was quite heart stopping indeed. Yet maybe too dangerous for me now. A good AWD seems like a good compromise and worthwhile experience to pursue.
So yeah, an AWD

For me, my next target is Lancer Evo V-IX.

Awesome stuff, I went to see a couple of Subaru Impreza WRX STI over the weekend. A version 8 on Saturday and a Version 9 Spec C earlier today. Funnily I know the Spec C is Subaru's track spec version of the Impreza which is lightened but the previous owner decided to add more weights to it by including huge woofers and sound proofing all around. All the weight saving was gone haha.

Maybe the guy likes audio and must have to accompany during traffic jams. So even if he buys normal Sti he would still do the same so will end up heavier still than using the type c.
