    The 318iS has a 16-valve four-pot instead of an eight-valve in the standard 318i, and has 138bhp. Nothing crazy still, but it's entertaining enough and faster than the six-cylinder 320i. And they were offered with limited-slip diffs as an option, as well as M-tech suspension and a few styling goodies as standard...

    Failing that, it's gotta be a 205 XS. Huge fun :D

    With an alloy throttle body, de-catted exhaust and a decent airfilter a metro gti should outpace all of those you listed.
