I love the GLI. It's an undercover killer in most cases. And definitely diggin it with the Watkins wheels.

Yeah I think it looks quite good and it is kind of a wolf in sheeps clothing it may not be as quick or pure breed Ford ST vehicles but its not supposed to be either its supposed to be like the grown up GTI and if it is as practical and drives like a GTI I would love one

I don't get why everyone loves the ST so much. But I digress.
The GLI really isn't so much a grown ups GTI as it is a budget A4. Really a lot of car for the money.

I really do like the ST but I don't think I can own a hatchback and not feel like I'm 16 and agreed I think thats true it really is pretty much the FWD a4

Yep - dig it. So I look at this and local dealers are selling it for $25-27K. Unless I'm horribly unfamiliar with VW group platform engineering the A3 is going to be the same thing in a more "prestigious" package for about $5-7K more for similar equipment (except of course no VW Synchro to match Audi Quattro in the us.

These are amazing cars, and undercut almost everything in the category on price
Also folks, remember these 3 vital letters: APR.
A stage 1 tune on this thing is enough to bump it up to 255 horsepower and 265ft-lbs on 93 octane!
