I've had BMW's (lots including M's) and some Jap turbo nutters (MR-2 turbo, 300ZX turbo, Toyota Supra turbo).
All brilliant because they had cracking powerful engines, went like clappers and looked good. All RWD too.Comment

I have driven a number of cars in this bracket, mostly belonging to chums or as test drives.
Although the MX falls down in a number of categories it is a clear winner in VFM. Pound for pound nothing comes close and unless you are going to use it on track or are very impressive on twisties then you probably will not notice any performance issues.Just saying like.
where there's chaos, there's cash !
I could agree with you, but then we would both be wrong!
