You're all dreaming - AWD for the speed only wouldn't make sense for them. The Speed only exists and makes sense because it's essentially a Mazda 3 with relatively small changes that don't alter manufacturing costs significantly. The Speed will only get AWD if it's available in the non-Speed model and I doubt that will happen.
It's the same formula for nearly every performance variant, no? They still have more in common with the economy car version that not...most of the different parts (brakes, suspension bits) are just bolt-in swaps on the production line. Hell, for the Speed 3 even the motor was a parts-bin affair just like the Civic SI.
The WRX/STI has been the same process too. I'd guess that only the EVO had significantly more parts that were unrelated to the economy version (like AWD) that bumped up their production and manufacturing costs. And Mitsubishi isn't necessarily a company to emulate...they are a mess.
Exactly what we are doing. Dreaming and having hopes.
