no, the 2011 RS500 limeted edition has 345 horses

It's just a silly number, the important part to know about this car is "FWD", yes, Front Wheel Drive, and close to 350 horses.. for a curb weight of about 1468 kg.


BMW 1 M Coupe is expected to sell for around 45000 K, RWD, 350 HP inline 6
That makes the 61.660 Euro's, for a Ford Hatchback with 4 banger FWD sounds like a really bad choice.

i really couldn't care about the "limited edition" badge... To me that's a sticker that says "sucker born every minute"

I would sell My 2010 MazdaSpeed3 (263hp, 280 ft/lbs of torque) for a Focus RS, but the car is not available in the US!

Correct. It's probably got nothing that a good driver in a GTI or a new Fiesta or (fill in the blank) similar car couldn't already do.

Mazda 2 with a Mazdasport package, if it ever comes about, will get my nod. The Fiat Abarth, too, when it comes stateside.

How about a MazdaSpeed2?!!

It'll happen. My guess is the "2" is going to sell like hotcakes. It's a great looking little car, and is said, in stock form, to be the real driver's car of this new little auto segment in the U.S.

Of course, nothing yet tops the turbo-diesel Fiat Panda I drove in Italy over the summer. That car was fantastic.
