And then there's the BMW M140i of course
Yeah, you guys get loads of cool options in that segment that we don't. Pretty much all we have is the Mini, GTI, and Focus ST. Honda is supposed to give us a new Si hatch, I believe.

Not only is the GTI cheaper over here, VW offers pretty decent incentives on them, as well.
