I didn't care about the cost, I bought the car that I wanted (which was actually just as expensive as the AWD's at the time). The first DSM that I ever owned was a GSX and I just didn't like driving the AWD for some reason...I think the car just felt more sluggish due to weight and had a lot more push in the corners. I am sorry to hear that your buddy's car is a POS, but I really don't see how that relates to this dilema. My car is heavily modded, his, well, isn't. To help eliminate the wheel hop, the Prothane motor-mounts, full coilover suspension with adjustable shocks, and sudo-LSD all came into play.
