Ah, you want a "hot hatch". Golf R? AWD (though probably a FWD bias), manual option, 2 or 4 door, 256hp.
On the used market (and several years old) is the Audi S4 Avant, though I hear the maintenance on the V8 in those can be pricey.

Could they have made the Honda any uglier?
The X1 looks sweeeet.

What you talking about. Honda already makes the ugly Crosstour. Seen many of these hatchbacks on the road.

As is, it is either too heavy or not enough power. I think they went with the 4 cylinder because a 5 cylinder version would put the TT RS to shame on performance/price.

If I ever had to own a car again I'd love to find one of these in pristine condition:

A V6 Civic SI wagon might be close to a worthy competitor, though I would likely prefer a Fit Si AWD.
