x2...and it always depends on the suspension and tires you have on your car

apples and oranges... each have thier drawbacks. x2 on the AWD, I want a WRX (no not an STI, you can prbably make a wrx faster with less money, I'd get the wagon too, and re badge it as an impreza). but to keep dreaming.

yeah im sure the older alty ser and the new coups are fast and handle well, i'll take honda's as an example, they are FWD and people use them to do EVERYTING from drag racing to time attacks so i think you could make a pretty wekk handling FWD car and i would imagine the altime ser has a sport tuned suspension with z rated tires i think it would handle quite well.

hahahaha they want to much money for a 2006 with 41k miles, its a really nice car but just to many miles for me on an 06 plus if i got one it'd be black or charcaol gray.
