after i bought my ra i went with a friend to go test drive the jetta gli. it comes with a bodykit, exhaust, recaros, nice shifter, sick rims, and of course a turbo. it was pretty sweet, and if i hadn't already have bought my ra i prob would have gone with the jetta. i know ur gonna say jettas are chick cars but this one was no regular jetta. plus there is that chip for like a few hundred dollars to get u close to 230hp with combination of just a better breathing air filter. i think it is a few thousand more, but it may be worth it.

I would just to like to top this off with the new Golf GTI 1.8T. The show, Top Gear, reviewed the hatchie, Golf GTI, and make some cool experiments with it. Like how they proof that Golfs are dent free by driving in a golfing driving range (not the car, but the actually sport) and let the people swing their golf ***** at the car. Dent free! And they also tested how good of an insulator for electric shock in Golf GTI. Put a person in the car, zap it to hell of a lot electricity (simulating lightning strike) and guess what? The driver isnt isnt fried, all electric systems normal, and its in perfect condition to drive!!!! Isnt that fun!?!

honsetly if you want to save money and not pay for a new car because most of these cars all hold little value (or to avoid the new car markup)
go on cars.com and search under whatever options you want for a used car...you will save THOUSANDS! I saved 6k on the car I just bought by shopping on there and I still owed money on my last car so that should say something! I had to drive 60 miles from my house out to easton Pa but it was well worth it in my opinion. ...hmmm save 6k just to drive an extra half our to get a car...uh..yeah...not like you have to service the car out there...LOL.
good luck and make sure you drive all the cars first to get your own unbiased opinion of them.

hi everyone. i decided to purchase the ralliart (im the one who started this thread). i test drove it at cerritos mitsu and loved it. went all out on it becuase they had a huge lot a few minutes from the dealership and had alot of space. kind of freaked out the dealer because i went up to about 80 and drifted the corners. he didnt even let me park the car. he was like "okay you can stop the car right here and ill drive back". anyways im gonna go pick it up tomorrow. cant wait. thanks for all your advice and support. without you guys i would have taken at least a year to decide. now that im going to have a ralliart im sure to come here for more tips and advice. thanks.

Yeah, the tc is pretty slick.
The only thing that makes the RA look good in my opinion is the EVO 8 kit with eyelids. However, that is rice. You would be making your car look like something it is not.
