It does have a way of getting under your skin.

cxrock16 · 04-21-2007, 12:07 PM

yeah i didnt think driving it was gonna sway my mind like that... and no tire spining form a launch is def a plus..

NOPSTNS · 04-21-2007, 12:56 PM

bro spend 2k on suspension/tire goodies and ud eat that stock evo on handling......

but whatev. its ur money

CleanNeon98 · 04-21-2007, 01:06 PM

ive always loved the srt-4, and wanted one ever since they came out, but the evo is just something totally different, and in a good sense. looks, handling, just so many things about it that make it an amazing car. However, when compared to the price of an srt-4 i dont know how that balances out. arent evos about 2 times more expensive?

cxrock16 · 04-21-2007, 01:09 PM

1 got my srt4 for 19k i could find a used evo for like 21k so the payments wouldnt be that much different.. but ya idk i guess its just something ill have to think about for awhile

**Ender81** · 04-21-2007, 08:01 PM

I had a chance to drive an Evo about a month before I bought my WRX. I love the cars, and do want one, but for the price of insurance and payments it was cheaper for me to buy the wrx and mod it. Like moding the Neon it's not the same by a long shot but not a bad concelation lol.

Willdue · 04-21-2007, 08:04 PM

Mitsu Snagged another one =]...

Ill actually be jelous then chad...maybe thatll make me wanna boost more lol

freebmx444 · 04-21-2007, 08:34 PM

evo's are very fun cars buy i found in most cases it would cost more to insure an evo then a 08 vet. think about it!

Evo8kid · 04-21-2007, 08:57 PM

its true, once your hooked, your hooked

Willdue · 04-21-2007, 09:01 PM

Id have an evo if I could sell my P.O.S and make 4$ more an hr...

MotorED · 04-22-2007, 10:18 AM

I sat in an evo, and wanted to buy one. But i just like my v-dub to much.

MPowerKai · 04-22-2007, 10:35 AM

Yea, Evo's are epensive to insure. They wanted 18k a year for me.

cxrock16 · 04-22-2007, 11:00 AM

18k a year? woooow

eat that stock evo on handling huh? On a skid pad... yeah, I could see that. It wont have the turn in, steering response, the same characteristics, etc...

There is no way to get a SRT to oversteer while on the gas.

In every case I have ever heard of the vette is cheaper on insurance. Even the Z06.

cxrock16 · 04-22-2007, 02:02 PM

I'm 21, a male, in NNJ, 2 points for speeding, 4 points for careless driving, 3 accidents one of which was not my fault.

$18k is still the most insane thing I've heard in weeks. I can't see you getting a much better deal on the M3 when they want that for the evo.
