Why is Chebby being gay and not putting their 2.0 ecotec in the cruze hatchback making 250ish hp and bringing back and modernizing the LK9 lsj from the Saturn ion redline with 190ish hp in the Sonic with a turbo instead of a supercharger
That shit will sell like hot cakes in yuroland and will bring healthy competition in the US hot hatch segment.
Till then our only options in burger land is FiST and FoST and maybe the boring golf.
I don't know where you're getting that from the article posted... Small cars just aren't selling in the US regardless of the brand. People here still have a hard-on for trucks, suv's and small crossovers, it FUCKING sucks because I'm a hot hatch fan myself...

>The days of affordable, fun to drive shitboxes is slowly coming to an end What's wrong with the Focus ST? no really. there's also the GT86 and that Yaris performance package from Toyota. my guess for the Fiesta being dead is most people would just rather have the Focus and >made in mexEEco Then i don't get it. the GT86 shows no sign of going anywhere neither does the Miata and Yota supposedly introducing a performance Yaris and apparently there's enough interest for GM to not only sell small cars but make them in the US as well (chevy sonic is built here so GM must not be hurting on sales as they haven't moved production to chink land or mexico to cut production cost)
