There would be more loss to the wheels on a RWD, so the 2.4 would put down the power worse. Handling would be better and launching would be better, but I would seriously want to upgrade power if it were on a rwd platform. The big push for FWD was to allow lower powered engines to propel the car efficiently.

unless of course, they come up with a rwd tC replacement, but i doubt it will happen. if your really want something like that go pick up one of the new hyundai coupes.
