For the money they are charging, the car ought to have at least 350hp from a newer engine design. I know they have great resale and all, but come on. I drove one before buying my GTI, and walked away scratching my head. I thought the WRX was a way better buy. Personally, if I wanted something that rough around the edges and aggressive, I'd be buying a true sport coupe of some sort.
I wish they would bring back the hatchback wrx
