5 cars that should have been RWD.
Sometimes I wonder what the world would be like if more sports cars from the 90’s were made rear wheel drive. Drifting would probably be a lot easier to get into, that’s for sure (more cars, more parts, etc.).
Not sure why the images are a bit squashed – still getting a hang of this whole “blogging” thing.
Integra Type-R (DC2)

Honda Prelude – looks very similar to an S14 from certain angles…but it’s just missing something. *cough* rear wheel drive

Chevrolet Cobalt (although I hate this car all together, if it was rear wheel drive it would only suck half as much)

Toyota Celica – what happened to at least the AWD version?

Subaru 2.5RS (GC8) – would have been nice to have the option to go RWD from the factory.

What cars do you wish they made (or are making) with rear wheel drive?

I have to admit that an AWD Celica would be awesome. Though it would also make it heavier. And lightness is one of the coolest things about that car.

Yep, I agree. The old AWD Celica’s are pretty awesome.

In my opinion,the integra ( dc5), most civics like the eg’s or ek’s (I’m a hatchback fan), the scion tc and the eclipse should have been rwd. And defiantly the toyota levin coupe from the 90’s!!

Oh yeah and fen motor sports converted a newer celica into a awd using the old celica all trac system. Mature converted an awd gc8 to look like a hawk eye impreza. And a couple of people have converted an integra and lude into rear engine rwd. So what I’ve learned is that all these cars can be rwd if u got loads of money and load of free time, which I don’t. AM I RIGHT??

IMHO I think a crx hf would be a good rwd there is a guy in santa clara that took the amc eagle and put the crx body over it making a 4×4 crx sick but a 6mt rwd 2012 ford focus WRC Edition is my choice or a 2001 2.5 rs converted to a 2012 sti 6mt and twin turbo boxter 3 liter rwd ( I think I may need a fresh pair of boxers if they make it)
Anyone else like these to
