No desire for more than 250 hp in a relatively lightweight FWD car, especially with the super low-profile tires they always get. I drove several Neon SRT-4's, and you just couldn't put the power down very well, even with the standard Quaiffe LSD they got the last couple of years.

I test drove one and gunned it on a road that wasn't perfectly paved and it through me around everywhere but in a straight line.

Eh, it's ok...I'd rather see some real pics. I'm sure it'll be quick though. That Cruze SS on the other hand...that looks like **** with a melted face.

I remember driving a chipped SAAB 9/3 Viggen (turbo 2.3, FWD) and that thing was silly fast -- on boost -- but boy, a bit of a handful, if in a fun, silly way (oh so sober Saab hooning around like a fool!).

Should that 300hp number prove true, which would be impressive from even a turbo 1.8, actually being able to utilize that power in a FWD car would be a challenge -- fun I'm sure, but a challenge.

Just another car for the WRX/STi to walk all over.

I don't want anything to do with a high power FWD car. Interesting to see how this one turns out, though, if it does indeed put out 300 hp with FWD.

Two cars not really in the same class. If you just want to compare cars with 300 Hp then we can ad to the list but no one should compare this SRT with an STi or even a WRX. The Evo is, in this country, it's main competitor.
