    Guess i wasnt so clear. Retain the CVT or have a traditional torque converter automatic . But give us the 1.5 turbo. Like a jazz RS version.

    A Jazz powered by Honda's 1.5L turbo with CVT or a Fiesta with Ford's 1.5L Ecoboost with DCT/6AT would definitely be something I look forward to drive. These pocket rockets would surely give the Civic and Focus quite a stiff competition in terms of quickness. Hahaha

    Given the poor sales of the Fiesta Ecoboost, I doubt they'll bring in a more powerful, less efficient variant of their entry level subcompact.

    The Civic RS sells because at the end of the day, at least it's a Civic and the next level (Accord and Miata/WRX) is still several hundred thousand away. But a Jazz RS or Fiesta ST at 1.1M will not sell when compared to an equivalent Civic 1.8E.

    Then again, that's just me putting on my businessman hat and not my car enthusiast hat.

    Jut is correct. This is a pipe dream for me.

    Indeed, jut is right. It would be wiser to save up for a WRX instead.
