Personally I wouldn't take pick either FWD hot hatch over a proper lightweight RWD sports car, but it goes to show just how far these FWD platforms have come. |
Our old friends at motoring hey. They’re not bad those mega comparisons they do. Funny the 2018 winner the Alfa Romeo Giulia QV was not ranked the year before lol, suspension issues.
By 2018 our platform was already 6 years old, interesting to see how the next gen stacks up. An 86/BRZ that is aging against newer competitors and it still finishes 8th out of 14th is pretty good. Of course some of the cars are going to be better, they’re brand new and triple the price etc. but it still beat some decent competitors. Bang (fun) for your buck it’s still hard to beat. PS I’m slightly biased...
