Golf GTI & R is supposed to be the best hatch there is. But somehow it is not passing a lot of stupid reviewer tests. People still go towards Type R or GR Corolla.

Almost no no talks about Megane RS these days. The 1st version RS250 is still good, but the price still hovers around RM70K. I think this one is probably a better deal than most used hot hatch. 2.0L with turbo and 2 doors.

The WRX is no longer the 90's WRX STI when Colin McRae won with it. There are no longer STI version of WRX from what i read. It is a capable car no doubt. But its not going to win stupid reviewers test.

For the moment if you have RM300-400K to spare on a hot hatch, its either Type R or GR Corolla.

Savagegeese did a review exactly for these
At least closed to it



Summary
1. Golf is the mature one, but not the best track and handling, but great for the road usage. Interior is murderously bad
2. Type R is the king
3. Hyundai is the close 2nd, bit win in terms of price vs performance
4. GR Corolla is the worse, for Malaysia badge only matters
5. Subaru said to be good too, but did the Subaru thing and blow up before can finished
