[ThundyCat]

Why no Escort RS turbo??


Loved my RS

In this weeks Autocar Sutcliffe reckons the new Mugen Civic is right up there with supercar pace on smooth roads and one of the best engines ever.

But nearly £40k for a civic

Wouldn't mind one in a few yesrs time once the've depreciated.

EP3? lol. You would have to be very biased or not driven many of the other contenders to suggest an EP3 is the best hot hatch.

JDM EP3?

Pretty damn good if you ask me.

 

[Gaijin]

apparently wiki says its a sr20det also in silvias and bluebirds etc

It is albeit transversely mounted.

Okay:

1. I've only driven an EP3 as far as hot hatches go.
2. The list to choose from is a rubbish, and there are other cars that have been mentioned here that I would rather have voted for than anything on there.
3. ??????
4. Profit

JDM EP3?

I've never driven a JDM EP3 so can't comment, suspect it'll be similar to a DC5 with having the same engine, but probably not quite as good.

They were talking about UKDM's anyway.

Yes I am serious and Yes its my opinion and there list is rubbish. And the DC5 and Ep3 are very different.

Mk2 Golf GTi gets my vote, IMO a better all-rounder than the Mk1
