Anyone here test driven the Evo X MR? I am NOT endorsing the car or anything but that 4 banger tubo felt surprisingly fast and torquier than the Z. I am thoroughly confused because I know the new Z should out perform the MR.

I am starting to wonder if there was something wrong with the Z I test drove.

Their performance should be very close, actually. The Evo base costs something like $38000 and has a dual clutch tranny. It has slightly less HP but better grip. They are pretty close in acceleration but the EVO will probably start to fall off as speeds get higher.
