So, I was driving around today and spotted a newer Hyundai Accent and thought to myself, that car could make a nice hot hatch if only it had a performance package like Focus ST.
This got me thinking, what other cars would be awesome if they had some special edition, performance package like ST, SVT, RT, etc? I am looking at you, Previa.

A fucking Prius XRS- with a damn turbo- would be pretty epic.

That's not a newer Hyundai Accent. This is a newer Hyundai Accent.

Toyota has made some killer NA engines in the past, it's time to bring them back and shove them in a hybrid.

The Previa had one. Mid-engined supercharged AWD monster FTW! It was basically a Group B car.

Doesn't TRD sell a "performance" package for the Prius?

Yep. The 4AGE was pretty much a Honda style screamer before Honda got into that.

Honda Fit. The 1.5 could be turbocharged for around 200hp reliably, since Honda used pretty much the exact same engine in their Aquatrax watercraft. Plus, it somehow conformed to emissions standards.
Ford Fusion. Arguably the best-looking midsize sedan on sale in the US, it's just begging for an ST version of some sort. The Focus and Fiesta ST variants are both excellent, and a Fusion ST would have no competitors in the current market.
Mazda 3. Why is there no Mazdaspeed version of this car yet?
Subaru Legacy. Because the world needs fast station wagons priced more accessibly than the ones built by Ze Germans.

True, but I would say that the one you showed in your post wouldn't be all that newer.

I like the Hyundai/Kia designs, but they do have a problem making engines that just aren't gutless.

I suppose, but it could be closer to 9 years old.

XRS versions of every Toyota and F versions of every Lexus!!!
I'd love to see a Yaris XRS with an 8000+ RPM engine maybe like 160-170 hp out of an NA 1.5L. They could also make a turbo all-trac with like 200 hp turbo.
A Camry XRS/ES-F would also be pretty cool. Turbo-4 and AWD on the Camry XRS, and a turbo V6 on the (also AWD) ES-F
On the very high end, maybe an LS-F with a V12, and an LX-F would be like a Range Rover sport that actually works.

MazdaSpeed2 with 2.0L or 2.5L from Mazda3.
Acura TLX-S with tuned 3.5L

I'd do Dodge cars, but they're already SRT-ing everything.

Lexus LS-F with the LFA's V10, AWD standard.
