Would have much rather seen this stateside over the Caliber. Your thoughts? Hot or Not! I like it!

The hunched down, wide-bodied, front-wheel-drive hatch will run 0 to 60 mph in 6.7 seconds, thanks to a single-cam 1.6-liter supercharged four-cylinder that generates 170 hp and 165 lb-ft. The engine mates to a six-speed manual transmission. While performance is important to Europeans, practicality reigns supreme in this class. The trendy interior makes the most of its compact dimensions with the front passenger seat and the rear seats all capable of folding forward to provide a flat loading bay."

I can't imagine a B-pillarless car being viable at that price point. -- 1999 SVT #220 -- In retrospect, it was all downhill from here. RIP, CEG.
