Default general Q...rear and front wheel drive...

ok...this is an argument i was having with a friend...he seems to think that rear wheel drive cars handle better than front wheel drive cars...he said "take a look at all the performance cars...like lambourghini, ferrari etc. they are all rear wheel drive..." i said that they are rear wheel drive coz the engine is mid mounted and sitting right infront of the rear wheels...ofcourse you would make it rear wheel drive...

i have some ideas as to why front wheel drive is better for handling...but am having trouble putting them into words...can anyone give me reasons, for or against front wheel drive cars handling better in general?
