Well it's certainly more attractive than what Ford just shat out.

Ford RS has faster Nurburgring time.

And bigger engine.

And fwd.

Looks amazing.

And more fuel efficient

And more comfortable.

And no bowtie.

Sonic hasn't run the Nurburgring, could be faster

Bigger isn't better

It's Haldex

Looks like a catfish

We don't have mileage numbers, but I doubt it's more efficient

Have you sat in one?

At least the Bowtie isn't a dumb blue Oval

"It's Haldex" is no excuse anymore, especially considering the following vehicles have a Haldex-type system:

Veyron

Aventador LP 700-4

Volvo S60R

Volvo V70R

I still prefer my MR2

Hasn't run the Nurburgring - Will probably post the first sub-2 minute lap

1.6L seems pretty big to me. Ever try drinking that much gasoline? I can't. Charlie can.

Lol, you and your FWD/4wd.

Looks like a wedge.

My odometer broke, but I can confirm that it does go, and use gas, so there is gas mileage. Oil mileage too!

One piece seat.

FUCKING EAGLE EMBLEM!

lolcar > either RS

Kinja'd!!!

One-wheel-drive

Unlimited slip

Horrific weight balance

Drum brakes

Less power than either RS

Fewer gears, and no way to select them manually

More body roll

Somehow more uncomfortable than either

Worse gas mileage than either

More fun. than both put together

Don't the Veyron and Aventador bias the rear though?

I don't really care, I was just counter trolling

Dey do. I just can't stand writing off a car just because of the AWD system it uses.

At least.

It'd be +10 but it was mid 90s chevrolet so the transmission ate 5 of them.

Like how I can't stand seeing a car written off because it doesn't compete with a car it's not supposed to compete with?

You can say the Sonic is a better buy, or you like it more, or you think it looks better. I will disagree with you, but that's all subject, so it's your prerogative.

However, to say that a 138hp FWD Sonic RS might be able to lap the Nuburgring faster than a 320hp AWD Focus RS is asinine.

Depends on the drivers. If the Stig was in the Sonic and my mother was in the Focus the Sonic might win

Oh and MY Sonic has more than 138 hp...

yes but the engine is the back with the transmission. Why would either bias to the front!?


Kinja'd!!! Jayhawk Jake > nafsucof

My point was that rear bias is more in line with the 'ideal' driving car than front bias
