I just like the new ones a lot more:



I think the overseas models have a number of different engine options, one of which is a 1.8T, but no 2.0T as of this moment (or at least I didn't see anything about it). Seeing how it's not yet officially coming here in that five-door layout, it's not clear what engine it would get for duty in the U.S. -- the 1.8T (which isn't bad, 185 hp and 39 mpg highway for a little hatchback is nice). It's something that we're considering since my girlfriend might give her 2010 Corolla to one of her parents once she pays it off, plus she wants AWD next since we snowboard a lot but would like to considering something with a bit more luxury. At first she said BMW, but we built one online, and it hit around $45k really quickly.

Yeah, it's the FF. I've seen a few, and they look pretty cool, though I've heard mixed reviews of its AWD system when on surfaces that really utilize it.
