Generally don't, but it's been one of those weeks where I've had fifty people tell me their "corolla/a4/accord/etc" handles like a sportscar. At some point my brain exploded.
As much as I love the VR6, I will defend the current gen of the 2.0t. I don't think it's wimpy at all - it's in Audis entire lineup and they're tuning it for 220 stock. That paired with AWD is a formidable combination. You can tune it to the low 300s safely, so that it has as much power as a stock S4. And if you swap a bigger turbo on it, it's delightful. As long as you don't mind turbo lag.
Edit: search YouTube for remapped TTSs to see what I mean. I think they're plenty fast stock, though, especially using launch control.
