Not bad at all for a boxy 3-door....
because it isn't very boxy, but still not quite a fastback. I wish a car in this class had real AWD. I'd consider it, since there really isn't much else. |

A Subaru offering that looked that good and had an STI powertrain underneath would have my money any day of the week.

There was a rhd GTI-R for sale on this forum within the last year or two, I seem to recall.

I would rock the socks off of that.
Turbocharged, AWD, probably a manual gearbox, fastback 3-door with t-tops... good grief nobody builds anything close to that right now to buy. I can't imagine how much stuff the builder had to import to get that to work. Even MORE if it had a Subaru longitudinal drivetrain, rather than transverse-I4-AWD, or if this format of a car were built by Subaru in the first place. Imagine if the 2.5RS/22b/ and the WRX coupe sold in other markets, had been just this much sleeker in the roofline with a liftback. |
