They're not really that close in performance....Kind of far apart actually.
I think the 0-60 times are about half a second or so apart, IIRC. In Bluemel's book, the listed times overlap completely for Euro versions, with different testers getting times differing by a few tenths of a second. But, whatever... both will struggle to keep up with an Mitsubishi Evo.
my thoughts exactly if you're "yikes" at $3k, you're gonna have a heart attack when you get the REAL bill
