*they're = they are.

*there = over there = direction.

Here is my take on this topic. There is no denying that the STI and Evo are fast and very good handling vehicles. As a matter of fact I test drove them both before making the decision to buy my 370Z. When comparing all three, I felt the 370Z edged them both in all around performance.

However, what you're about to read was the big deal breaker for me not buying the STI or Evo. After test driving the Evo and walking out of the showroom with my son, he pointed to an elderly lady (around 70-80) and said "Dad! ... look, that old lady just purchased the car we drove." I had to explain to him that the older lady purchased a Lancer not an Evo. He said "No ... I remember it read Lancer on the back of the car we drove." And that's when it dawned on me ... "No way in hell am I buying a suped-up four door granny car. The same goes for the STI.

I wanted a two seater sports car and nothing else ... period. When you compare the styling/looks of the Z to the STI or Evo, they just don't compare. The Z looks freaking awesome.

So ask yourself this question. Do you want a suped-up four door granny car, or the three year in a row DSPORT Magazine sports car of the year.*

The choice is pretty simple!

thats all matter of opinion. When i owned a Cobalt SS/SC, my girlfriend and I went to look at a 2008 EvoX. The big turn off for me was it had 4 doors. I wanted a coupe 2 door. Then traded the Cobalt in for a 370z, then traded that in for my SRT-10. Then traded the SRT-10 in for my 2011 EvoX. I recently blew the engine in my evo and while im rebuilding it i picked up a 03 cavalier for $600. God damn it pisses me off not having 4 doors. It's such a pain in the *** having to either put my seats forward for someone to sit in the back or put **** in the trunk instead of just tossing it in the back seats.

As for the old granny 4 door car. Well this old granny car was picking on and beating up a 09 Viper ACR, 05 Viper (intake, headers, mid pipe, exhaust, throttle body and tune), 05 Corvette at the track. The only one in my run group that was a challange was a STi. Me and the driver of the STI were fighting for second place all day and only a tenth of a second between our lap times.

EvoX Time Attack #1 - YouTube

423hp EvoX GSR vs. 05 Viper - Time Attack - YouTube

imo, the EvoX is better then the 370z, and i've owned both and tracked both. The EvoX is better on and off the truck, end of story...lol.

I say that proper grammar and diction will serve you better in life than a car that's faster than an STI.

I just noticed they put the word 'tine' in that pic instead of 'time'. Lame.

So instead, I think this is more appropriate:

Unfortunately your pic or link didn't post. I'm sure it was pretty funny. Ebonics is something I use in social congregations but writing like that on a forum makes it hard to understand. Besides, leaving out whole words in a sentence, in a 2 sentence response is pretty horrid.

I really hope my joke doesn't spew hatred and ignorance like I already saw in one post? Its one thing to say a joke, and another to insult a race of people on a public forum. I hope that won't be tolerated???

Sorry, fixed! I don't know why it didn't link anymore. It was fine before I left work. Take a look at my post again

Both have their pros and cons yes its faster but there's a 2.0L in there. They are not ever going to get into high HP numbers with out negative consequences. Where as a 3.7L has alot of room to grow from the 332 base. Then you have awd vs rwd and on and on. So you can argue with people to death on the matter or just know that both are excellent cars for difference reasons.

Lol actually its quite the opposite. The low compression boosted turbo has a lot more expansion capabilities vs our high compression 3.7 NA. Regardless.. speed isn't everything. Just be happy with what you have and enjoy the very linear power band that our car offer vs other brands.
