    you'd probably have to look to buying a new compact sedan and modifying it extensively to get a new sub-6 second, <1.5M car.

    in which case, you'd be voiding the drivetrain and possibly suspension warranty, and the mods inroduce parts that could go wrong (defeating your purpose of getting a new car); you might be better off scouting a used Evo 5 or 6 that's in not-too-bad condition hehe

    the evo is much better than the subaru unless you can bring in the wrx sti version which then makes them even in power, handling and braking (more or less).

    for 1.5m, get a ek civic, drop in a b18 and there you go... sub 6 second performance.

    if you wanna go even faster get a hatchback, put in the same engine and super bilis ka na.

    plus, since weekend car mo lang ok lang to have something that's not as exotic as long as it can run with the best of them.

    1.5m will buy you soooo many goodies if you start with a honda!!!!!

    why not get a replica done. i heard / read that they are dong replicas of AC cobras, Lotus sevens for less than 1M, just specify them to put in a bigger v-8 engine for more HP and torque. try reading the some old local car mags( like C!) they featured some people who builds replicars. Although its really not an everyday car. You really cant buy a brand new, stock, sub-6 second car here thats comfortable for daily driving. but if its just a weekend car and your willing to modify then there are a lot of options.

    Value for your money will be the HONDA CIVIC TYPE-R

    0 to 60mph at only 6.6 seconds

    The 0.6 seconds difference is really depending on the driver but for the price this pocket rocket is the one to beat.

    Everyday car !!!!!!!

    ang alam ko auto-tranny only yang type R na yan. 2.0L engine. i don't think it even has as much power as the SiR (140 or 155hp yata), pero mas magaan yung body and mas maganda torque band (2.0L engine eh). and i think vtec-3 na ito. i don't think it costs 2M! di naman evo yan eh.. NA yan.. i seem to have read dun as AI boards na competition yan for Lynx RS.. so di dapat siya lalampas ng 1M.

    21,936 euros ang Type R so that would be around 1.5M

    saw a type r sa isang car exchange in timog, selling it for 2.1M.
    if its equivalent in euros is 1.5M, tama lang when u add the taxes.

    Pero pag talaga 0-62mph in 6.0 seconds below mahal ang gagastusin mo.

    AC Cobra by Shelby:

    0-62 mph in 5.0 to 3.5 Seconds

    225 to 350 Bhp

    what is being talked about there is not the EP3 Civic type-R pictured. the one we are getting here in the Ph being discussed is just a 2.0 K20 engine Civic sedan w/ a matic tranny only. AFAIK 155hp ito.

    the EP3 typeR has a K20C engine with only a manual 6 speed tranny and in the hatchback EP3 chassis. this one does 200ps.

    for your question my answer is the Dodge neon SRT-4 quickest pocket rocket under 20k$US.
