List so far:
To be tested:
Fiat 500
Ford Fiesta
Honda Fit
2012 Kia Rio
Veloster (Will test again with MT)
Kia Soul 2.4
VW Golf "sportline"
Scion TC
Tested, in the running:
Mini Cooper (non-s) - Great ergos, road feel and handling. Expensive.
Focus - Really nice car but feels top-heavy. OK but not so much fun. Maybe better with sport suspension?
Tested & Rejected:
2012 Accent 1.6 MT - Awful motor and throttle response, vague shifter, bad power steering, floaty disconnected suspension.
Veloster 1.6 AT - Awful motor and throttle response, bad power steering, tape-cul but bad handling suspension.
Mazda 2 MT - Good driving, nice motor, good handling, rejected due to bad ergonomics and claustrophobic feeling
2012 Civic Si - Too floaty, numb suspension and steering, motor not loud enough
N/A Chevy Sonic - Gutless motor, just like the Hyundai 1.6. Dangerously slow when taking off from a stop, comesa live at 4000rpm, a result of the ECU fucking with throttle opening (ignoring gas pedal input)
Rejects:
VW GTI - Too expensive
Mini Cooper S - Too expensive (but really good)
Mazda 3 - Rustbuckets, and retarded smiley face front bumper.
