It all zero's back to the long lasting dilema of "what do you want from your car." If you want good handling, then a well balanced mid engine, rear wheel drive would be ideal, or a well tuned AWD. The only drawback to the AWD is that it too is heavy. May throw off your balance.
An AWD with a strong system is good for straight line drag cause you are "pushing" and "pulling" at the same time.
my CRX is just a toy for the street. She's never seen the track yet, and don't know if she will. If I had the means (and weren't having a kid in 5 weeks) I would get a S2K in a heartbeat. But again, I would choose that cause it's an engineering wonder once again released by Honda.
