i would vote for the fiat, the seat is just a stupid VW. the seat also looks like shit in person but the fiat is pretty nice. plus the fiat has that awsome glass opening roof!

I totally disagree with you, seat look's way betta... and its a betta car..

[Coventrysucks]

The Fiat has been criticized for its dull uninvolving ride and performance.
Also, being built by Fiat means that at some point something will fall off.

The LCR is a much better car, VW build quality at SEAT prices.
It isn't the best handling car in its class, but by all accounts it is a fun car to hoon about in.

The newest version has 225bhp, and the 1.8 20v unit can easily be tuned to give even more.

The LCR is a better car overall than the Stilo.

P.S. "Stupid" VW. That'll be the incredibly successful and very popular Golf mkIV platform then.

the leon rulez
fiat sucks anyways!
lol

[SupraMan22]

Looks..the Cupra
What some speed they both travel...Cupra
Well im convinced, the Cupra is my choice. I don't really care for either though.

[RS6]

I'll take the Leon, mainly because I dislike Fiats in general, but also because it is a far superior car. I also think the Leon is better looking. The only thing I like about the Fiat is the 5 cylinder engine; always good to have an interesting soundtrack.

[h00t_h00t]

Would it be better to compare the Cupra R to the newest VW Golf GTi?

[RS6]

Would it be better to compare the Cupra R to the newest VW Golf GTi?

Nah. A better bet would be to compare the up and coming Leon Cupra R to the new Golf GTi.

[dave_fonz_164]

Not even comparable, the stilo will get eaten alive.

[1HITWONDER]

i love the leon cupra and the cupra R. what one is better? and where can i buy one in Brazil?

The Cupra R isn't built anymore. There's the new Cupra which is basically a Golf GTI with 240bhp.

If you live in Brazil you are going to know more about what cars are available than the rest of the forum, I think there is one other Brazilian member on here.
