That was exactly what i was getting at originally when i made the claim it was better than the current Golf Gti and R32, dollar for dollar and what you get its not even close However that could change with new GTi!
The reviewer on the other hand seemed to be up and down and all over the place and for me one of the worst reviews i have seen in some time. For example, is it only me but if you are buying a true Hot Hatch (FWD) you wouldn't even be considering a WRX or Ralliart Lancer, so why even mention them
As Wraith i think mentioned why say you line the Power and Torque then on next like say you don't
I'm not a Golf hater but it really seemed like he owned one and didn't want to admit this is in same league or better! The only thing that makes the Golf impressive is the DSG box but for the massive extra cost doesn't get my vote
The interior of the golf is nicely built. but the quality on the exterior is not great.
Golf are also full of weird problems (as reported by a mate who owns one)..wiper stop working for no reason, then starts again etc..
DSG is a great box but how long will it last?
What is impressive with golfs is fuel economy...especially on the gti.
Sorry guys, but I can't see a Mazda stirring any passion in me, regardless how much torque and power the MPS might have... I believe that when you are looking to buy a hot hatch and you want it so much that you part with $40k +, looks and badge plays an important role, along with performance and handling. If it wasn't so, we'd be all driving second hand Imprezas and that would be the end of it
Goes without saying that 3 MPS is tremendous value for money. Having said that, would I pay $10k extra for a Focus RS or a Scirocco R? Yes, yes I would!

You have to source the whole car first, none of the two being available here yet. RS hideous? Come on, I would admit is pretty, well, porn, but not hideous.
A brilliant alternative to the MPS would be the Golf GTI Pirelli. With a $2k remap from APR you get 229 kW in a car that's way classier and just as fast.

How much plastic do they wanna whack on the front of it?
