Well, I’ve driven the regular 570 so if they did the right bits to turn it into a 600LT, then I can believe it is special enough to win the eCOTY. The 570 is mesmerizing, like piloting a Jedi starfighter just off the road surface, not really like driving a regular car.
Compared to that exotic experience, a car like the M3, M2 etc has no chance IMO. This is a test to see who makes the most compelling drivers car, and that ain’t the M2.
Add a certain budget into the equation and cars like the M2 and yes, Fiesta ST take the cake.
And we always take these with a grain of salt. Like, where is the Corvette? Mustang? etc. it’s just a British COTY and with a few added biases thrown in. Entertaining but not the last word.
