To the owners of GR Yaris who also have fast rear wheel drive cars, does the rear wheel drive mode of GR Yaris actually feel rear wheel drive when accelerating? Do you feel the hand of God, the push in the back when accelerating in real wheel drive mode? compared to front wheel drive? Do you feel the gentle push at the back with relatively loose front axle when gentling accelerating in corners when in rear wheel drive mode? That rear wheel drive sensation that no matter how fast the front wheel drive cars are they are unable to give.

Thanks

Regardless of mode, it always feels like 4WD and there's a good reason for that...
So no push in the back when accelerating?

Do you not miss that smooth acceleration in the bend from RWD, that seems that all the power is coming from the back and steering is free to direct. As mush as I like the taut spring, traction and ability to change direction of my front wheeled 208 gt bps, I always miss that smoothness and sense of enjoyment when cornering I get from less taut m240i.
