Default FWD cars that should have been RWD

Cast aside cost, merits of drive train location etc, talking just engineering and enjoyment of driving here.

Since picking up my Accord I cant help but think how sweet this thing would be if it was RWD.

Dont get me wrong, FWD has its advantages but it also got me thinking of other cars that seem a wasted opportunity to not be RWD.

Alfa Romeo 156 GTA - amazing engine, to me good looks etc

Lancia Fulva Coupe - gorgeous little sports car aimed at the Alfa 105 series and shocked me when I found out it was FWD

Im sure there are plenty of others too, its not all about mad skidz just a more balanced feel (IMO).
