rwd in rain = reason enough to drive fwd, but like I said, I don't want to start anything

I've driven rwd. I know what its all about. But not everyone who drives is concerned about being a speed demon. All those exotic company's you mentioned are just that, and are more geared for performance. Most people who buy cars get them for driving around, work, shopping, etc.

and I've never had problems doing manuvering with my civic. I think suspension balance, size/weight of the vehicle, and center of gravity have much more to do with weight transfer than rwd vs fwd does. The only real benifit I'd see with rwd is better accel.

you can't say a civic doesn't manuver better than an f-body, like you stated as an example. You're ludicus if you think thats true.

and fishtailing sucks unless you're drifting.
