They arent an upscale sporty brand.....the roads in Europe are mostly twists and hills, that is why the cars are built with independent suspension and harder shocks. The images you see on the Internet mainly show you the top of the line sedans, but trust me, you can get basic striped down models... which is what sells the most.
Upscale sports brands are BMW and Alpha Romeos.....
I drive a 2010 Golf that growls at people when it goes over 3000rpm.
