Yes - YES - thats right - GT4's rule - FWD drools 
for the money i think there sno better " high end " performance car on the market than a st185
I mean - look at it - Bulletproof motor gearbox and drivetrain ( unless you have a metal fatigue weakened driveshaft like i had ) thats capable of handling BiG amounts of power with minor modifications
It comes STANDARD with excellent brakes, and as far as i know for the OZ ones - A torsen LSD rear end - AWD grip , and a slick looking silloette
Standard on the inside you get electric windows - power steering , ABS on some models , climate control on some models , extra comfy seats - a well laid out cabin , with everythig in reach that DOESNT look cheap. Outside of Supra or Mr2 - there is No higher spec performance model from toyota with the same amount of goodies or performance , or for that fact nothing bar those mentioned above with the same amount of BIG ppower tunability with already installed factory parts ( you dont need to do a engine conversion for one! )
Compare against a WRX - the WRX is lighter yes - and slightly more grunty in stock form - BUT they have weak ass gearboxes , 4 doors , typical sedan boxy looks , and evey goodamn hoon that DOESNT own a commodore V8 has one ..
Instant Japanabogan-car!
With the money saved in buying a st185 - you can rectify most of its weaknesses - like the intercooling setup - and the rear end suspension wanderness , add a bit of good exhaust , and boost , and have a car that in AWD terms - has little match on the road this side of Nissan GTR..
They are a good GOOD thing - and really worth the money
