Read post above yours....
Same can be applied to you....have you driven one?
So far the SX4 is getting rave revues for its driving dynamics regardless of size or small engine...infact the say the car feels faster then it is which thats what the average consumer cares more about
They even compared the driving dynamic to that of the WRX but in a subcompact package you honestly can't beat it for the price and its the only subcompact to offer AWD
It was even noted that if the tuner crowd got their hands onto this car they could make a WRX killer
Here in the states it starts out a a little more then 15k as ming stated its package and price destroys the competition like the the Vibe or Fit
This is from their website:

WORLD CAR OF THE YEAR AWARDS: Mission Statement
World Car of the Year (WCOTY) is a program initiated by, organized by, and conducted by automotive journalists from all over the world. From the outset, those of us involved in making it a reality have done so in the context of one over-riding priority. We are dedicated to ensuring that it is carried out with the utmost objectivity, credibility, and integrity.
WCOTY has no affiliation with, nor is it is any way influenced by any publication, auto show, automaker, or other commercial enterprise. It is administered by a non-profit corporation, under the guidance of a Steering Committee of distinguished automotive journalists from Asia, Europe, and North America. In that way, it draws on the experience and expertise already developed by various other award programs throughout the world.
It is intended to complement, not compete with those existing national and regional COTY awards, which are inherently different in scope. By its nature, WCOTY includes some vehicles that may be unavailable in individual regions, and excludes others whose availability may be limited to those regions.

Now the SX4 probably won't win, but atleast it got into the top 10 as the Swift did last year...
I really like how everyone was like "Rock on!" "Yeah! The got a Holden and Caddillac in there" "Sweet! They know what cars are good out there"
Then as soon as they are droped when the Top 10 is rolled out - everyone gets bitter
"They're so Bias!" "Have they Driven it?" "This is a European Joke"
Get over it! Seems like the biased ones are you guys
