Please read what I responded to. I posted them to refute the point that the Honda 1.5 Turbo and Mazda 2.5L "don't compare" when clearly, they do. It's as simple as that.

yes, I agree on paper the difference isn't that big for some measurements, but considering all the torque from the 1.5 is available just under 2000 RPMs, the 2.5 isn't comparable for a person coming from a GTI where the max torque output comes at 1500

the driving experience is quite different from the get go so hence my confusion as to why he left the lot with the Mazda 3.
