You are taking the discussion out of context.

Other than the AE86, the Nissan 240sx and an array of Japanese RWD cars are popular for their out-of-the-box balancedness. These cars are not only popular in drifting, but also in roadraces nationwide on speedways.

The FWD vs RWD topic has been beaten to death all over the internet. I never imagined it'd pop up here. Even many of the TL owners acknowledge that the RWD layout is optimum to their transverse layout.
