SEAT: Leon news **Copa Edition news (page 1)**
"Autoblog Spanish has full coverage of the debut of SEAT's new competitor in the hot hatch wars, the Leon FR, courtesy of our man in Madrid, Alberto Ballestin.
According to What Car? Volkswagen's Spanish subsidiary is pricing its 197 hp FR at $31,910 USD, about $5,630 less than VW's GTI, which uses the same TFSI 2-liter engine.
SEAT announced that an even hotter 240 hp version of the Leon, the Cupra, will debut in July at the British Motor Show."

This 240HP version of the 2.0L FSI shows how we will also see it in the USA in different models. Sounds like the Golf/Rabbit will get a 230HP version of this in its 50th anniversary edition but I am guessing we will see it in the A3 and new TT?

The twin stripes down the front remind of an idiot I saw that did it to his Dodge Neon.. At any rate the exterior of the Copa edition is pretty sweet, although they must have run out of cash on the interior- looks like the crap that was in the last gen Trailblazer
