No offense to the 4Kq owners, but I second the point. I had my 4KS for
about a year and found a mint 60k miles, 4Kq at the dealer's lot. I had
thought " Wow, the 5-cylinder is probably a lot faster...and all wheel
drive too!!"
Big disappointment. My 4KS would leave it in the weeds until at least
70-80mph. The 4KS is geared a bit lower, which is also a benefit for
auto-x. For that zippy/pocket-rocket feel, the FWD 4-cyl cars are the
way to go. And all of those VW tuners to help the engine... :)
