if you're talking about price point, it fits.

other than that...GTI is just a bargain Audi A3.

to explain the perspective, the FT86 is essentially a bargain s2000 at this point with what we understand the specs to be. In regards to Weight and Balance (with FT86 having the better theoretical balance)

Will you compare GTI to an S2000 ? I wouldn't.
Performance you go with FT86.
Sporty family car you go with GTI.

But still, the performance bargain is the WRX 265.

And with regards to what the driver is looking for GTI will win the overall package category. I'm relatively sure it will BEAT ALL the competition in its price point in its "package", but will certainly lose in performance to every single other car in its price point around a circuit (Genesis coupe, Ralliart, WRX, Mazdaspeed 3, Miata, ft86)
