Autocar: GTI MK7 vs. Focus ST

http://forums.vwvortex.com/showthrea...-Ford-Focus-ST

Autocar rated the mk7 GTI higher than the Focus ST. The new front LSD and adaptive suspension gave the GTI the edge.

Probably just a matter of time before they compare the mk7 GTI and GT86. For those that don't know, the GT86 is Autocar's reigning driver's car of the year for 2012.

Have no fear. The GT86 will prevail...or else.

It'll be an interesting comparison. If the front e-LSD in the mk7 is as good as they say, I'll be curious how they rate it vs. the traditional rear LSD of the twins.
