People thinking they can get one of those cars and make them "mad fast" should REALLY look in to something else. I have a friend that owns a local shop, and he just put 4k worth of supercharger on their shop car to get a neck cranking 218 RWHP :-/. Those cars are purpose built handling machines, and they do that job well. Toyota and Subie didn't want to sacrifice balance and the low center of gravity for power. I would LOVE to have one too, but I will never own a NA car to be my "mod car".

I know it would cost more. Thats no brainer.
I still believe Subaru BRZ should have went with AWD option to be available as well for the customers who have love for the AWD system on a coupe car.

Umm yo, "you mad bro"?? Pretty sure you wanting to ride Polaris' mom isn't on topic at all. It was a joke. Kinda like yours was, but funny. If intellect isn't needed, then 12 year old intellect is definitely not needed. Not hatin'. I couldn't care less what you ride on in your free time.

I'm with Mangnok.
CLA AMG AWD. Hands down. Highest specific power output of any 4cyl on the market. Stock.
Can't wait til they do a CLA AMG Black...

The CLA is pretty bad a$$, but I don't think people who would buy a RA, Speed3 or WRX could afford that car at almost 50k. Love the styling, though. It would be a tough choice if I had 50k lying around. Might go gently used GTR at that point.
