matthew lund, the 1.8 is nowhere near as quick as this would be, it would be around 5 seconds faster at a 0-60 sprint than the 1.8

speester i think if you can read properly it is NOT an XR3i, this is by far one of the best cars released this year. Does need to be 4wd to have a excellent hot hatch. Many front wheel drive hot hatches out there.
