Some might think this question is a no brainier and just go for the RS. The reason i got the Fist originally was because my local dealer on the RS launch was marking the car up around $8k above msrp, so i got my deposit back. Got the Fist because of the fun factor over the Fost at the time. The RS is on another level though. The used market is pretty good on the RS, no way at this point I'm going to take the depreciation hit on a new one. Test drove a couple in the past couple weeks. Really impressed with it. The Fist is a blast to drive. But for it to be a keeper at this point it would need a little more power out of it. Do I sink money into the Fist with downpipe, tune, X37? Or just save that money for a RS? I really like the Fist though, the size, the handling, styling, kona blue is a killer color. BUT after driving the RS, its a excellent package. A package i wouldn't have to modify. The interior is also a step up in the RS which is nice. Obviously the RS payment will be more but that's not the concern, is it really worth it?
