Do 2-wheel-drive cars have any advantages over AWD?
...aside from the cost of the car and the mileage? My allroad and Volvo S60R both have AWD and I was wondering if my next car needed it too.
Thanks

Quattro has it over all other front wheel, AWD and 4X4 I have driven for the average application...
now off road or tow/haul my 4x4 is the thing but in go anywhere, under any condition not just AWD but quattro operates the best IMHO...if you do some reading there are some amazing technical articles referred to these posts about the difference between quattro and other AWD systems.
I could see that handling under summer conditions might be better with a rear wheel drive car and gas mileage is always better with front wheel drive over AWD but I will give up the mileage for the safety considerations.
