FWD cars you wish were RWD - Motorgen - Automotive Events, Meets, Cruises and Forums

Don't be lazy and say everything - I want specifics. Here is some of my list:

Mini Cooper Coupe:
With the turbo motor out of the S, I think a RWD version would be very entertaining

Acura Integra Type-R:
It's a cool car as is, but RWD would have made it a lot better.

Dodge SRT4:
Light weight, RWD, and easily modded turbo engine would have been a lot of win.

MazdaSpeed3:
Same as above, but this would actually be great with an AWD system as well.

Chevy Cobalt SS.

Possibly the most boring looking good, perhaps truly great, performance value cars ever.

Stock vs. stock I think it beats and Evo X in most categories, for rather less. (Hopefully I'm not confusing it with something else.)

You are indeed correct. I thought of it too actually, but forgot to add it in.

Even if that Speed3 was AWD like it big brother(Speed6) it would be awesome. Simple power mods to make the awd powerloss a non issue(like all STI owners do) and good god that would be a perfect car.

I agree. It would be an awesome daily.

97-01 Avenger

This would have been the missing link of muscle Mopars.

I'm lazy.

I would love to take one of those Avengers, mount a solid axle and drop in a Hemi/ T56.

There is actually a company in Europe that is developing an AWD system for the Cooper, I forget the company's name though. That would be fun.
