    stock i would have to say honda civic Si

    I had a Volvo S70 T5 with IPD sway bars and lowering springs, and Bilstein Yellows and in some conditions it felt more controlled then my B6 S4.... probably because it was 500+ lbs lighter. I really miss that car!

    I really don't like FWD period. I will never buy one again if I can help it. I love BMW's rear wheel drive.

    Ditto. They are amazing little cars to drive. Granted I could be a bit bias since I used to work for a company that specialized in MINIs, but they are absolutely the best handling fwd car I have ever driven.

    lacking a bit of power, but handled quite better than my cl type-s and other FWD cars I'd driven.

    yeah with just DECENT coilovers, you can have almost NO body roll. the only way you would spin out is if the tires give in. a stock rsx-s is pretty fast because its light. it can keep up or even beat our cars stock.

    I love the Mini Cooper S stock, it's like a gocart lol

    Mk2's also feel great and kind of similar, but they need to have good/new suspension. Every one I have driven recently had old shot shocks, so they felt like shitty gocarts... if you get what I mean
    Ignorance is bliss.

    Yeah, I used to own one with basically "finished" suspension tuning. So I can definitely vouch that even in stock form the Integra Type R pretty much outhandles anything else out there.

    The new Civic Type R sedan in Japan is probably faster than the Integra Type R as there have been a few tests where the FD2 Civic Type R has even bested the S2000 on a track.
