The difference is in the shape of the plastic bumpers. The "superiority" is only in what the viewer thinks looks best. The cars are the same. If someone is telling you a different story, you now know to not listen to them.
Do all you can to hold out for AWD. Turbocharging will come along with it.

Plus they are interchangeable so its all a matter of preference.
And like Defiant said, if you can get an awd or even a fwd turbo, you wont regret it.

GSX/TSI AWD-1
GST/TSI FWD-2
GS-T/RS-T/ESI-T-3

Basically, the GSX and TSI AWD are, of course, 4g63t powered all wheel drive cars.
The GST and TSI FWD cars are 4g63t powered front wheel drive cars.
The GS-t, RS-T, and ESI-T cars are 420 powered, front wheel drive cars that have been turbocharged with aftermarket parts. Im sure the n/t group will argue with me but it has been proven time and time again that the 4g63 has more power potential than the 420a and can be made faster for a lot cheaper.

There is a 1G Plymoth Laser RS AWD but not a RS-T AWD turbo. It is a turbocharged AWD car like the Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX or Eagle Talon TSI AWD.

The Mitsubishi Eclipse GS-T, Eagle Talon TSI and Plymoth Laser RS are pretty much the same turbocharged FWD car.

From my biased view, in a 2G you really want to avoid a GS, RS, or ESI becasue of the NA chrysler 420A powertrain.
