LOL

Ok, first there are a lot of nice cars in the world and the EVO is one of those. But I didn't start a thread here about my Audi S4 being a great car simply because I know that it is and I also know that no one on this Camaro site gives a crap..........or not much of one.

Guessing that just like the Audi threads and S4 threads which are wayyyyyyyyy slower than Camaro5 he can get a lot more "attention" regarding his new car than he ever will on a Mitsubishi website. In fact he is one of ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm everyone on that site that has what he has and has modded like he has. So by coming in here and claiming his car is wayyyyy more fun to drive than a Camaro gets attention.

Also, taking any OEMs 2.0 L turbo over 300 HP at the crank starts to quickly approach hand grenade level. There are reasons why every OEM on the planet keeps those numbers at or below 300. And yes that will hammer an AWD drivetrain not engineered to handle it.

But I doubt we'll hear about that when and if it happens.

It's a great car, but this is a Camaro site. OP you shouldn't expect much more that what you are getting.

If you had just said, "hey, I'm trying something different and it's lot of fun" you would have got a different response than when you post, "hey this is wayyyy better than my old Camaro" to a bunch of Camaro enthusiasts.

Enjoy it, I know it's a fun car. AWD provides a different experience. But I also know I can't even come close to getting the back end loose in my Audi...................and I miss that.

I would like to see how that evo does against a 1LE on a track. Do those evo's still hit a wall when they reach 100mph?

The 1LE almost beat a 662HP GT500 around VIR, so what do you think?
