Next thing you're gunna tell me CV axles are a bad idea 
Sorry, the cheapest fully functional transverse mount car I have cost me $180.

I guess I am used to how RWD cars handle. As such, I don't want to have to try figure out what I am driving when it goes into a spin. I already know what will happen. Also, while I have snow, it is hardly an every day affair. Therefore, how often will I need that slight edge in handling during snow times? Can I compensate for it with snow tires? Absolutely. So, since I drive on dry pavement for the most part, the take off is better on RWD cars. Therefore, my preference is RWD cars. So, to make a FWD car appeal to me, it has to cost less than $10 otherwise, I can't see how it is worth it for that few days of possibly good handling.
