Best Sport Compact?
- Thread starter Butterybunz
- Start date
cobalts are more sporty but the caliber is what I would buy since I have 2 dogs and the hatch would come in handy for driving them around.
+1 totally agree

Lexus Is300, read any review on it.
I may be biased cause I always wanted one but i voted for the SVT focus
If you want boosted performance, the Neon SRT4.
If you want n/a performance in a great handling package (even stock), RSX-S.
Fit and finish on the RSX-S is also very good, they still have a pretty damn good interior (way ahead of its time in the early 00's but shows its age now).
Id ask why the 2G DSM isnt on that list but methinks its because youre looking for newer cars.

Mini Cooper S. They are relatively slow, but very fun to drive.
I hear they're great for driving through subways and hauling gold bricks.
I mean best all around car.
Mini or GTI would be my choices out of those.
I'm not asking what car has the best mpg, or fastest 0-60, because I can look those things up. I am asking what car would you pick and do you think is the best car to own. Best all-around car.
wait, why aren't the wrx and evo on here? wrx wins this category in every respect, hands-down. if you need space get the wagon; it was my previous car and was fantastic.
if for some reason you're stuck with these, go with the mini, tons of fun and quality interior

The '13 Focus ST is going to be a great car and would be at or near the top of the list for a sport compact if I was in the market for one.
All of the cars I chose to do in the poll are FWD.
I agree. I chose pre-2010 cars since they are in my price range.
Ms3.
I would go with the new focus, Ford is putting out some great vehicles nowadays. You get a great vehicle and can support an American company
Looks like MS3 wins, what makes it better then the competitors?
I was torn between MS3 and Cobalt SStt. I voted SS mostly because they can be made pretty quick with just a few mods. Same can be said for the MS3 but the SS is faster stock vs stock and the SS is a little beast in the twisties with its stock 4 piston brembos. BUT for a DD I would take the MS3 hands down.
