Let me know when I can get a manual AWD Corolla or Camry.

So.. If BMW goes FWD and Mercedes follows, there's pretty much no reason not to buy an Audi huh?
I could buy one as well if it wasn't for my massive pile of student loan debt. I'll just stick with turbo four bangers until I get those student loans paid off.
Too bad they got rid of the hatch.
Right, I was just pointing out the ST, WRX, & Mustang require different tires for winter.
I actually test drove a Focus ST yesterday in the snow, it's safe to say that car needs snows as well. I got it stuck within 10 minutes of leaving the lot.
Uh... I didn't say it couldn't corner or would be a good car. Just said it would be a bad DD for someone with a family and snow. Sure you can put snow tires on and you'll be fine, but putting a car seat in the back of a two door is a major PITA. I had a coupe with car seats for three years and will never go back.
Maybe if you live in a warm climate and are single. The Mustang would be a terrible DD for someone with a family who lives in a snowy climate.
Although I would much rather have the WRX, it's hard to go against the deals to be had on a new or used Ford. I bet you could pick up a new ST for less than a slightly used WRX.
They should just produce it as is, I love everything about it. Small hatchback with roof rails, great clearance, quattro, and a awesome dash layout, it's perfect.
Simple; don't drive your show car during the winter. Who cares about little scratches on the winter ride? Hell, the salt's going to be the end of the car anyways.
Eh, the MY2011 wasn't actually that bad for it's time. Hell, I'd take a 2002 Focus over a 2002 something else.
I have one from Progressive, and it doesn't actually get you for acceleration or cornering, just hard braking.
It looks well done, I wonder how many hours of labor went into this Miata? 36k does seem steep, but 17k seems low for how clean this looks.
I somehow doubt the 2015 Mustang will be far behind in the 0-60. The current gen Mustang GT (manual) will do 0-60 in 4.3, this new M4 (manual) goes 0-60 in 4.1 That's only .2 difference. The new Mustang is supposed to be lighter and more powerful so it might be able to make up that .2.
It's drowning out the rest of the story. People don't write about Mustang, they don't write about earnings, they write about Mulally.
True, it's more of a progression of the style rather than a complete redesign. I'm more interested in the IRS and loss of 200 lbs.
I can deal with the CVT, in fact I'd probably buy it to keep the wife happy (my motorcycles are all manuals so it's nice to relax in an automatic car), but the fact the a hatch isn't offered absolutely kills it for me. No way will I be buying this new WRX now that it doesn't offer a hatch.
I actually really like it. I already liked the Escape a lot and this just improves on it. I like that it's a small vehicle built around luxury. Also, I bet it'll be fun to drive with the 2.3l in it.
I feel like car companies should be coming up with technologies that create more involvement on the drivers part not less. They way I see it is people can't be bothered with driving because they don't enjoy it. They would rather text while driving than pay attention to the road. The automakers need to figure out a way…
