Lancer Evolution
I wanted one for a long time and had heard nothing but good things about the car. When I was finally able to get one, I found out it was everything everyone had said it was. The car is the most fun car to drive I have ever driven.
EVO the new sheriff in town
This car rocks!I owned a 1999 Dodge Viper -- very fast,but this little 4dr with just a little tweaking will give any muscle car a run for its money,including the one I love to wax, the Porsche 911. Ad you pay, what, $90,000 for that?!

Evolution is Awesome
This car is amazing. If you want a fun car to drive that can dust almost anything on the road this is it. By far the best car on the market today. Picked over a Suburau WRX STi and I am very happy I did. The handling on this car is amazing. Nothing compares to the way this car drives. It is a rally car legal for the street. I picked the VIII instead of the MR becuase for 4 or 5 thousand more dollars the MR is just not worth it. I have a smile on my face everytime I drive my EVO.
EVO 8
This is the best production car out for a reasonable price. I test drove both the EVO 8 and the WRX STi, and the Evolution has less power and torque (276hp/286ft-lb. vs 300hp/300ft-lb), but a much better better suspension (much stiffer for better performance), a more advanced AWD system, and the Recaro seats in the EVO hug you, unlike the STi seats which were designed for fat Americans and provide no support. I have not been beat in a race yet and it is the funnest daily driver I've had the pleasure of riding in, let alone owning.
Evo
The Evo is one hell of a ride! Its ride is a bit uncomfortable and there is a bit of road noise but it's always fun to hear the engine roar. It has easily beaten my former Subaru STI sedan and now I can't find a car to match the Evo. The only ones I can think of are a BMW or a Mercedes or a Lotus which all cost about 30,000 more than this little baby. It's four cylinders provide the kind of power I would compare to a V8. Overall it's awesome. This little Evo is going to be my baby for a real long time
