I think your spot on - with the evos and scoobs quickly lossing their status as the must have performance bargain i think these, plus the falcon which ford are hinting at selling over here shortly, will be the next big thing - i love em
In the UK, I would also not go again for 4WD performance car by all means.
There are many cool 'toys' around, and this one is really great.
I personally would maybe not go for it as I already get the 'big V8'-fun with the Merc, but go for something like a small sportscar.
If you drive a normal saloon at home however, this is really the beast.
Yesterday evening, when we took the Evo from Oulu airport, I actually told my girlfriend that normally, when I arrived in Finland, I was always amazed buy the power of the Evo.
This was the first time I drove it after the AMG and although it is fast, you really wait for that big shove of torque you get with a large engine.
