Whoa, should have sprung the $120-$150 for a year's worth of unlimited alignments.
I hear you. Every time I experience understeer or sub-par handling because the motor is in front of the axle I wish for a car with better balance and pedigree. I love my car for how visceral an experience it can be which helps me appreciate its lack of refinement, but there are times I'd rather be driving something else that was sporty to begin with. The Accord wasn't, and you can feel that. However, on the other hand... I have no car payment, it's a one of a kind, and it's still a great deal of fun. Not to mention it looks better than so many of the new cars being made.
But I agree, the allure of RWD is too great. Def looking for that in my next car.
