RWD has always been more spectacular (except Group B though). I remember a recent Dutch rally, there were all pretty boring group-n rally cars like Imprezas and Evos and this one rally prepared Porsche Gt3. That was the highlight of the rally seeing that car in action!
Nice vid thanks!

Very nice video
The RWDs looks very spectacular, but that does not mean WRCs are boring. WRCs can also go sideways, but most of the time it is the driver who can't. And like Dani said, they are bloody fast an that makes them spectacular in their own way. I do agree on boring group N cars, but isn't that also the lack of driving skills/ taking risks of the driver? In the Netherlands we have some spectacular group N drivers, they go fast, have healthy budgets (so they could take the risk of crashing) and go very much sideways.
So don't immediately blame the cars for being boring, most of the time it is the driver.

and who says drifting was invented in japan? 
Awesome video.. I love the fact that it wasnt mixed with sound. These E30's have the most bad-ass sounding 4 cylinders!
This era of rally definitely makes WRC now somewhat boring, but I those guys in WRC do amazing things with 4wd!
