In response to In response to 5




          

There is one other platform that has (well had until 2001) front and rear multi link suspension and has had it since 1988. None other than the honda civic/crx and in 90' thru present integras. This is the main reason they recieved so much press about how "such good cars" they are for the money. Of course most honda owners dont have a clue. Like the 3G elipse the 2001 has also went retro and lost its wishbone suspension (and suspension travel among other things. It did gain in style though thanks to its carbon copy styling of the accord coupe much like Explorer/Expedition). Like a 2V per cyl OHV chevy V8 can be fast, 1G suspension can be made to stick like glue but that doesn't mean its a good design. On a smooth track with modified suspension and equal power a (true) live axle camaro and mustang can run with anything on 4wheels but wouldn't you want to be driving the M3 instead? What makes it worse on the 1G FWD there is no "live axle" (spinning the wheels) like those RWD cars so there really is no reason it shouldn't have independent rear suspension
