With the neon SRT-4 coming soon will the WRX still dominate?
Both 0-60 in under 6 seconds
Within $5k of each other
Both based on amazing handling chassis (how the hell do you pluralize that?)
Both turbocharged 4cyl

Should be an interesting matchup whats your pick?

Somebody correct me if Im wrong on this cause it just seems silly for it to be this low.
WRX has shitty stock tires.. I think thats what causes the shitty lateral gs..
