Yep both dead, but you will be able to buy an electric car from Mitsubishi pretty soon or the slow ass Outlander Sport.

WRX and STI will become the kings of the Rally cars again.... by default.

Ford may not make an other RS, the ST will be the only performance Focus. And if they go a head with the RS, no talk about AWD. The Cruze SS will be out just after the Focus ST. So there, under $30,000 hot cars goes like this

MS3,
GTI,
Civic SI,
Focus ST,
Scion sport coupe (toyota/subaru),
Genesis coupe,
Mustang V-6,
Cruze SS,
Cooper S,
Sonic Turbo,
Fiat turbo,
WRX,
Subaru coupe (toyota/subaru).....
Did I miss any?

That's one depressing looking list.

Surely someone will come along with something once they realize the market is open... Shit... maybe someone needs to Tucker a car together lol.

some honda insiders hint that a next-gen RSX/Integra/TSX coupe may be in the works, but given Honda's situation post tsunami/quake and their super-conservative approach, i'm not holding my breath.

considering that they've shelved the HSC/NSX project when they're 90% done with design or the supposedly "new" 2012 civic, i doubt we'll see anything new or bold from honda...ever again?

Yep!

I'm still not over the EVO's death, and the non-turbo non-awd Eclipse got the axe because it sucked.

VIP mofuccas.
