VW http://newsletter.autoexpress.co.uk/c/1fWJizq9PQGWc4EF "But the best news is that the new suspension settings and redesigned back axle, plus the chassis’s lower centre of gravity, all help make the Scirocco even better to drive than the Golf GTI. The wider track gives it greater grip and cornering composure, and although there is some body roll, it’s well contained. Overall, the Scirocco feels more agile and responsive than the GTI, while retaining that car’s sense of enthusiasm. There’s even the option of different driving modes.

both companies have had problems. mazda may have a lesser reputation with reliablity, but honda has a lesser reputation on sportiness.
