Both configurations have their advantages, but I think that front wheel drives are always given the grocery getter moniker far too often.

High Speed Driving Dynamics are more affected by suspension setup than anything. I drive a Mada3 Hatch 2.3L 5speed. I've modified the suspension with adjustable coilvers, front and rear swaybars, camber arms, etc. Needless to say, it rides harsh (however, it's fantastic for AutoX). Since rigidity has increased so much, it makes the car much less stable at high speeds, despite being front engined, fwd.

Hey Ben,

Thanks for the comments! I’m on a cruise right now and experiencing the misery of satellite internet, but I will follow-up!
