I dont care if FWD is better than rear in the winter
It it the crappiest drive system ever and cheapest
Handling sucks, acceleration from stop sucks, boo FWD

I love my celica
But God how i wish it was RWD or AWD.. frown.gif

I think that Celicas handle pretty well for FWD cars....Auto mags have always said that the celica is one of the best handling/braking FWD platforms out there. This is because they dont constantly remind you that youre driving a FWD car like some others out there, like civics or what-not.

RWD cars that ive driven like the BMW Z4 and Camaro SS felt great in their own way, and so did the AWD Subaru Impreza i drove for a while over the summer last year. But i still say that the Celica, or at least mine anyway, is one of the best feeling cars ive driven. Period.

Even after taking my friends relatives Z4 for a spin then climbing into the celica to compare....yeaaa....cant beat getting that level of satisfaction from a car that cost a tenth of what that car cost them. biggrin.gif Although I'd still take one any day....
