My daily/winter car is FWD, and it's a great car. It's great until you push it harder than about 70%, at which point it all falls apart. Any slip of the drive wheels means the steering may as well be disconnected, which is lovely fun in snow (I will believe until I die that in snow or loose conditions, RWD is a zillion times easier to control). It's hateful to work on (transverse engine, tiny transmission stuffed into utter inaccessability).
For any sort of performance use, RWD or AWD are comically better, and I'd rather work on those as well--assuming the engine is longitudinally mounted.
For mild, day-to-day use, the only perk to FWD that I can think of is the lack of a trans tunnel, so you've got a bit more legroom. Whee?
