Burnin' Rubber: Citroen Limited Edition DS3

Yet another hot hatch that likely won't ever come to US soil.

Citroen, a French company for those of you who aren't car-literate, is one of the top runners in the World Rally Championships with their light and nimble cars. As a special treat, Citroen is unleashing a special edition DS3, a fast and sporty turbocharged hatchback.With 200 horsepower and 203 lb/ft of torque, the specs are right on par with the Volkswagen GTI, which is the top car in the sport compact class. In addition to the power, Citroen has gone to great lengths to make this car perform better in every way. Bigger brakes, better springs, a wider stance, and stiffer suspension included.

The special edition car, to my knowledge, comes in gray with eccentric orange accents. I think it looks great, and even though it's French, I really like this car. Maybe I should finally move to Europe.
Thanks for reading.
