Any Evo owners here?

It's been weeks since the test drive, but I still think about the car everyday. It doesn't have as much power on paper as other cars, but it's probably the most fun I had in quite a while. The tires all instantly grab the road right away and then once the turbo kicks in, you're in another world.

I really wish I could just walk downstairs and drive this car, it's an amazing experience and really hope cars like this don't get killed off ever.

This isn't one of those cars you run in a 1/4 mile, this is made for turns, and damn is it ever fun. That being said, I don't own one, but I've done some good off-roads with it.

Agreed - while it's not bad at all at the 1/4 mile, it's really meant for taking turns. I took it into a parking lot and turned it quite a bit, floored the pedal in 1st gear, and every tire stuck to the ground without any sliding at all. The car is very predictable and easy to drive.

I skimmed over an article about it, won't it be pretty similar to the current one in terms of power/handling? I actually prefer the current generation's body.
