wait for the 965, but keep looking actively and you'll find it.

FWD are not as reliable and durable as the RWD. The FWD are more confy, more powerful, more luxurious, more fun to drive, BUT all that comes at a price.

Higher maintenance costs, more expensive parts, and tight engine bay for the DIY guy.

AWD in '98-'00 are very troublesome and expensive to repair. Do a search on beveled gear on this site and you'll see.
