2.0 is not an engine choice here in the states. Even though you read about buyers of the 2.3 and 2.4 asking for more power it is out posted by those who get the 2.0L. Both look nice visually though. Your HP figure also seems a bit high from what I recall reading.

Its 2.0 HPT engine, known for a turbo lag under 3500 rpm but I dont mind it...over 2.0 is quite expensive here for insurance..

I have no doubt insurance is a factor in selection. Just saying that the 2.0L is listed as having 168HP compared to the 226 you posted. Really though the decision is up to you since you have to pay and drive it, good luck.
