On the other hand, I don't know how reliable they are relative to the Z...

Also... FWIW Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X MR vs Nissan 370Z - FastestLaps.com
Hmmm... How accurate is this? I didn't know a 370 can beat an evo in straight line even if it's stock for stock.

Couldn't agree more... the Evo does NOT look spectacular compared to the Nismo; most people couldn't tell the difference between a base Lancer and an Evo - the differences are subtle. Of course, I notice the huge wheels and brakes, aesthetic improvements... but a non-car nut will not.

Here are the things that happen to me routinely in the Nismo that never occurred when I was driving the Evo:

*People taking pictures/videos of my car while driving
*Coming back to my car from gym/store/wherever to find people posing and taking pictures with it
*Random strangers complimenting styling/sound; asking questions about the vehicle
*Thumbs up from pedestrians/other drivers
