Looks very nice indeed..good power too. Have you seen the car magazines this month? there is another big comparo(Cobalt SS, Lancer Ralliart, WRX,Caliber SRT and 3 other cars and you can guess now what car wins.

I have been saying all along, people just like to see dynos numbers, 1/4 mile times etc, but some cars make their way to the top by other means.

Look at previous comparos, the GTI made it in the top 3 over and over.

Take care!
