Test drive experiences today

Try a different dealership for the Evo. The one I went to practically threw me the keys. Then again we did pull up in our C6 Vette so the probably didn't think cost was going to be an issue. Definitely a fun and fast car. Handles crazy good. Sticks really well. The seats are amazing. You just have to get past the rest of the crappy interior and the fact that it really needs a 6th gear for cruising.

Haven't driven the new Mustang or Challenger yet but we do own a Camaro 6-speed 2SS (my girlfriends car). Initally yes it does feel large and disconnected (actually the large feeling never goes away) but once you get used to it and trust the car it corners really well. It's not as nimble as the Z but it will still take a corner rather well. In auto-x the camaro's usually only come in 1-2 secs behind the Z.
