Wich will you choose?

[fabro_s]

Im just wondering, I love hot hatches, and i will like to buy one soon, wich one would you prefere?, we dont have lots of hot hatches here in mexico, but i want you to help me choose...

Its between:

Mini cooper s - great looks
Renault Clio Sport RS - a really fast hatch, good equipment, racing experience
Seat Leon Turbo - great looks, great sound, bad equipment
VW Golf GTi - a classic that everybody knows
Opel Astra GSi - i dont really like it

Well guys that are my options, hope you can help me to decide...

[N.J.]

Well, in Europe the Mini Cooper S might be a bargain - but in Australia, Its BLOODY OUTRAGEOUS to charge $39,900 for a 1.6 Supercharged 2 door car.

Great little car - but just way too much money (in this country at least)...

God! In this country, for $30,000, you can get a V8 engined 4 door saloon not too dissimilar to a BMW M5! (Holden Commodore/Ford Falcon etc. etc.)



No, by FAR my favourite hot hatch is the Renault Clio Sport!

In Australia, you pay $33K for it (what that basically means is you pay Mini Cooper money and actually get Mini Cooper S performance! - much better!)

A local car magazine said, "it has the performance of a WRX for 10K less!"


p.s

In short - GET THE RENAULT CLIO SPORT!, I'm saving up for one myself (seriously )

the clio for sure ! i love how it look and it ahs great performance

Mmmm , i think you should get the Golf GTI mk5 , wait till it arrives to your country is the biggest and most comfortable

Is the clio sport the RWD Mid-Engined one!?! If so, GO FOR THAT!!!

I concur. From the reviews I saw, this car is extremely good but not too practical or comfortable. Its also really hard to control at the limit but the car is really stable until you get it sideways.

Well in most countries the Clio called Clio Sport is "just" the Clio 172 (now 182) in uk and somewhere else... the RWD one is usually called simply Clio V6

of course the honda civic type-r!(im really sad that you forgot it...). Have a look at it, and im sure you will love it.dont expect it to be very comfortable or have good equipment,its almost a racing car...Whatever youre looking for,theres always something available...i would go for the mini cooper if it wasnt type-r

Second that....(tho not a big fan of Honda) u really should include that

[stracing]

the civic type-r is only available in the UK unless its thru import.

You should take a look at the new Mazda 3 Sport with the 2.3. It maybe a bit down on power compared to other cars on the list but it's NA and reasonably priced.

[kteo2003]

from the cars you 've mentioned i would definetelly go for the mini cooper s....

[Chingachgook]

I'd go for the Clio!

[oscargarza88]

id go witht the leon, cause i like its looks, it handles very good and the engine well its easy to get alot of power out of, and its comfrtable inside, but it has to be yellow!

´definately cooper S
AMAZING car!
