What's the benefit of RWD other than maybe being more fun? No way could a RWD model be light enough to become faster than an AWD. At that point since it's a rear-biased AWD system, why bother?

-edit
I guess price is a big thing to consider. Forgot it would be probably $10k cheaper as well.
I don't need a car for drag racing so RWD is preferable and I will always opt for lighter weight. The point I was making was that the XI is simply too heavy for such a small car. I see no value in the XI for my purposes.
