1. For saying you have experiance racing, you sure sound like someone who just cares about what HP numbers they can generate.

2. Go buy another Evo if they are so amazing.

3. And somehow I doubt its the biggest attention getter outside of a supercar.

I happen to like it too. I don't have the old school muscle memories, but I just feel more "with" my car. It feels raw. Doesn't affect my ability to shift or drive.

Im not quite sure why, but this thread has reminded me of a saying. "The Jack of all trades is a master of none."

in all seriousness though, maybe the 2013 3.8 Gen Coupe? iirc, I think it made 350hp at the crank.

pictures needed for your fist eating.

Before someone makes the next Z hate thread , please delete your forum account and sell your Z. You don't need it.

Just for reference this is what the OP posted in his "hey bought a new z" thread.

"I absolutely need to get away from Mitsu and modding/racing in general. I spend wayyy too much time and money and am finally feeling like its time to "grow up". Priorities are changing and I need to buy a house. Driving an uncomfortable, modded car to work or out on a date isn't as enjoyable as it used to be either. The Z will stay stock for as long as possible. I have no intentions of voiding the warranty or getting in trouble. I am a man and will always have an itch for modding/racing, but the Z is a great car and I will enjoy it for what it is. (a daily driver)"

To be fair, it's my DD too.

Though, it's also my only vehicle. :ugh2:
