Bollocks. All 3 are derived from rally cars and have 4wd transmission, all 3 are 2.0 and turbocharged. Only differance is one is a coupe.

I can't think of another car that you could compare a GT-Four to. Most coupes are rwd with a select few being fwd.

They can look really well just on a set of wheels with the big ass spoiler etc.
Pretty tunable etc too but expensive to fix

No, just not as quick as a GT-Four, I suppose compared to these 3 it is slow. Still considered fast amongst other cars though.
Don't forget, 0-60 isn't everything

Unless you're on a track it pretty much is.

Not really. A car that is fast 0-60 might not handle as well as a slower car round a track once you hit the corners.
