Well in a nut shell, if it wasnt dry weather, the handling on the car was not good. You could go no more than 30 in a turn or else its super tail happy. I would fish out on my a hand full of times. not this was a project car and has alot of rust and has over 200k. and tires were in fair condition. Im not saying I never drive a RWD besides this car in non dry weather, just my celica was a pain. I'm just on the AWD because I drove a friends Legacy and loved it (drove an STI to and loved it too)
My dad used to have a Toyota Supra and never had issues with speeds.

Last year I was in the exact same predicament you are currently in. Due to many transmission problems i decided to get rid of my 09 Mazda Rx8, also i wanted something a bit more roomy. It came down to the '11 335i sedan and the '11 IS350 f-sport... After having driven both i went with the lexus due to a much better looking gauge cluster, better nav set up, a whole lot more comfortable, and had a much more aggressive look. Honestly the only real edge the beamer had was quickness and it really wasn't that much faster. I'm obsessed with my 350 and haven't once doubted my choice. But to each their own, hope this helps
