    Now if only it came in 2-door fastback (not wagonback) and with the 3.5L...that thing would be arguably the greatest car ever sold. It already PWNS the 1st & 2nd gen SHO's.

    Nice ride!! I was looking at one of these since we've gotta get something for the wife but it looks like we may be going the Golf-R route.

    Sounds like a nice dream, but they would have to make it a foot longer.

    BRZ is quicker, based on the results from other STX competitors that were at my last autocross. Not surprised, it has racier tires and weighs less with a much better alignment (and shocks too)

    Golf R is not a bad choice at all. It's not as racy, but quicker and more luxurious.

    3.5 will just make it a nose heavy pig. The 2.3 makes as much power anyway... I do agree that a 2 door would be cool, but fastback would kill the practicality.

    Problem with the Golf-R is....

    It's not a Scirocco body.

    You lose a lot of usability in the Scirocco body... It's better looking, I agree, but it's not more usable. The Focus is already tight enough in the back seats...

    I get that. But for people who want a 4-door that can kick ass, there's already an SRT-8, CTS-V, M5, and a host of other choices. The world needs something like a GT-R, but without all the portliness.
