They'd have to build a whole new platform for RWD, and all their chassis are built for FWD. Acura and Honda's sporty cars like the Integra are just suped up economy cars.

>>15577278
This guy gets it
>>
>>15577297
The S2000 was RWD
>>
>>15577236
V6 Accord Coupe. Literally perfect except for lol fwd
>>
>>15577308
True, but they had to develop an entire new platform for it, which was only used for one car (the S2000), so it's ultimately easier and more profitable to just build off existing FWD platforms.
>>
>>15577236
2006 / 2007 Chevy MonteCarlo. These were FWD, and should have been RWD.
>>
this thread is so dumb and i hope all you dumb kids get in accidents
>>
>>15577236
Honda Prelude and Acura Integra

I'm sure Cadillac is trying to forget that era where they went FWD with most of the platform

Pretty much this. Who the fuck thought a FWD LS4 was a good idea?

bt20v with toyota altezza/is300 sourced rear suspension/drivetrain and a 6 speed az6 transmission or some sort of stronger t50

Ford Probe maybe...they should have changed the name too.

That would be great if Ford Europe make a RWD car that is not a Mustang. A new Capri. But there are already several sporty cars in their lineup.

Toyota celica, would of been a whole different car

>>15578229
Nope

>>15578229
Oh god that's schmexy...
>>
>>15578471
Another thought, if they redid the Celica GT using an updated version of that sucker, maybe with an available boosted 6 and R/AWD you can bet your ass that sucker would sell. I know I'd sell a testicle for one.

>>15578496

This gen Cavalier Z24
Should've had the Camaro V8 and been RWD
>>
The LH line of Chrysler( Intrepid, LHS, New Yorker, Concorde, 300M) should have been. The engines face the front of the cars anyway and it couldn't have made them any worse pains in the ass to work on or own as they already were.

RWD does not instantly make a car better. The only people who actually believe this are manchildren with no grasp of handling dynamics or chassis tuning, and who suck so much at driving that the only way they can enjoy a car is to plant their right foot and make the back swing around.

If your only argument against non-RWD cars is that you can't drift with them, then you have no credibility whatsoever to pass judgement on how a car should have been designed.

>RWD does not instantly make a car better.
No shit. The point is that some cars are worthless by being not RWD. Like the Hyundai Tiburon, or Honda Civic del Sol. An uncomfortably small and impractical car designed to be sporty, why make it FWD? FWD has its advantages, sure, for mostly economically friendly reasons, all of which are thrown out the window in a sports coupe.

>>15577419
The Prelude was already one of the best-handling cars at the time. It doesn't need to be changed.
>>
>>15577236
Should've been FR;
>AE92, 111
>Toyota Sera
>Mazda MX-3 and 6
>Nissan (s)EXA

>>15578229
That should've had an AWD "GT-Four" trim.

>>15578638
>you could argue that every fwd vehicle could be made better with rwd or awd
Aside from commuters. Some companies (Honda mostly, Toyota and Mitsu dabbled in performance-oriented FF, European manufacturers) have a way of making FF work, but this is more suited for lightweight hatches.
