The MS6 is really, really fat, and has some serious issues with heatsoak. Not a bad car, but critically flawed. The regular 6 is a nice car.

It's just a Golf. Nice car, but not really the same.
The SVT Focus is a GREAT car. Four-door versions are rare, but around. Nice aftermarket, too.
SRT-4s are Neons. I'm not a fan. They're somewhat interesting, but I just can't find any love. I adore the old Neon ACR (strip it down, stiffen it up), but this SRT (rice it up) thing is blah.
Subarus rock. If you don't mind a not-cool car, the Forester is wonderful. Great all-around utility car, but lacking in rear seat legroom. The turbo version goes like stink, and the newer versions of the N/A car have God's own torque curve. It's not much better at peak, but the powerband it awesome. It's based on the Impresza, too, so it handles great. It has a very low CG for a SUV-type thing (flat 4), and it drives like a sporty sedan.
