Oh Gawd....

Focus ST3 was about 30whp down from a GTI7.
so the 184kw is a lie, well in SA with our fuel.

In fact, these new ST's are making the same wheel power as the previous ST's (166kw)

What I do not understand is that the power is quoted in SAE standards, so somewhere something isn't adding up.

To the OP, is that GTI DSG or Manual?
DSG. Both Road Tests are on the CAR Mag website. GTI 7 vs Merc A250 and for Focust ST

The 7 is a really quick car, miles faster than an ST. However I think it's its build quality and refinement that makes this choice a no brainer.
