Considered a DC2 type-r like someone else mentioned, but it's hard to find the right one and since it's so old less reliable. (some day though, some day)

Focus ST-test drove it and I thought it was pretty tacky and disappointing, and honestly felt underpowered. I really didn't like that car, including the interior. I don't understand why so many people like it.

Civic SI--Disappointed with it, it drove ok and had good turn-in imo, but stupid that they lowered the redline to 7000, and transmission doesn't feel that great to me even tho many others seem to love the transmission, plus the gearing seemed too short at least in 1st and 2nd. Then in the car I test drove there was no engine water temp gauge and the dealer guy couldn't find it either. That was the last straw. He just said "the light comes on when the water temp gets too hot."
