Everyone commenting on this article is missing the point - no one is saying boosted cars don’t react to an ECU reflash. Because that’s stupid and they do.

I got to sit in one recently - the coolest feature is that the front passenger seat power-folds entirely forward so that the rear passenger can maximize legroom.

Now that's a scary thought.

I’m just gonna ride in the bed of this truck all the way to the top 10 post.

As someone who has driven both the super and turbocharged versions of these cars, the supercharged one is just a steaming pile of shit.

Such a small, low face. It looks almost submissive. That’s an interesting change when everyone else gets more and more aggressive.

I am positively revolted that you would dare include the Rolls-Royce door umbrella on such a list. The nerve. Plebeians.

It is worth pointing out that the last time Mazda offered a turbocharged engine in an SUV, that engine found itself in some high performance applications as well... Like the Focus ST.

Mmmm... slightly stacked exhausts.

I sold them - they were not reliable - but DAMN if the 3.6 isn’t nearly as much fun as a 335i.

I want to see this thing’s butt.

I actually really like the front end.... But everything behind it is flat and horrible and boring.

I honestly don’t mind it from every angle except the rear.

I shit you not, my insurance card said Mazda Mazda6 Mazdaspeed.

I remember thinking a 1999 V6 Accord was the fastest thing this side of a rocket.

I honestly loved mine. But I was 17. I don’t know why anyone who wasn’t/isn’t 17 would buy one. But if you’re 17 and you want to torquesteer and go fast, it’s really the only car you should buy.

I have one. 2008. I’ve driven a FoST, Genpu MS3 and I've also owned an 06 MS6. I love my MS3. I think it's great for what it is. Very light, quick steering and good acceleration. Not great interior quality but that isn't why I bought it.

I feel super ignorant for being a Texan and expecting Oison to be something other than white.

I was wondering if that was a Turbo R (because I don’t know much about 90s Bentley’s). Thanks for saving me the trouble of looking it up! Gotham fucking rules.
