You see class, that's a very good question, i am so happy, you paid attention feather-throttle-not-hair.

And no, it's not RWD, it is FWD. However, i'm willing to bet a lot on it out handling that Mercury Capri you mentioned. You see, it is possible to make sweet handling FWD cars. They won't do power slides, but they will devour the proverbial back road with aplomb.

Heh. I'm just giving you a hard time.

Weirdly enough, the car that sold me on FWD being okay sometimes was a 1st generation Dodge Neon. The neon, not surprisingly was really light.

That was my question! And I didn't even think about adding the additional snark with the Capri reference. That's actually pretty awesome. haha
