I don't know; I like the hooligan that is the Focus RS. Can't wait to drive one.

 

M cars have traditionally been about balance and dynamics. But along the way, they discovered the m brand appealed to execs, so they loaded more Hp and increased weight while still trying to make it as dynamic and balanced as possible. It is still very sharp dynamically considering the weight. The last great one is the e46 with the screaming in line 6. But they are still somewhat heavy. unlike mainstream Porsches, Dsc off really means off and doesn't re activate when abs is triggered.

The real successor of the e30 m3 is prolly the gt86. Too bad most people who drive on the street prefer Hp

 

Would love to trade my VW R for the new RS. Wife might revolt since I have a GT 350 coming to go with my 1 3.
