So apparently the 300hp FOcus does 0-60 in 5.9 seconds? Let me get this straight... a compact car with as much horsepower as a ye olde Supra takes almost 6 seconds to get to 60mph? Is that what we call progress?

And I'm guessing the AWD is not symmetrical, but rather FWD until the front wheels slip?

yeah WTF is up with that

the WRX is a full second faster...

it depends really.

some are shitty truck chasis that get neutered(better)

some are lightly jacked cars(worse)

don't sell me a 'truck/suv' thats a civic/corolla(crv/rav4, atleast they usedto be this way)

same with the murano/fx's I think

Yeah but it is fuuuuugly

I kinda dig the new 'widebody' hatch. better than the last one for sure.

*Shrug* they are both ugly as fuck, I've never been a fan, but when they hit the hatchback thing I nearly vomited. I hate hatchbacks anyway. I'm all about coupé's

By definition a crossover isn't on a truck chassis.
