There is a guy in town who built a 700HP 350Z. He says it was fun to build but it wasn't any fun to drive any more. HP isn't king....
Looks are subjective. I love the way Evos look (especially the IX and VI).

I still love driving my damn near 500awhp pump gas Evo FWIW.

And lol@resale value... you DO realize that the Evo's KBB is HIGHER than the STi's, right ('06, 45k miles, excellent)? Not by much ($1k), but still worth more.

Where do you people get your information from?
lol, umm... maybe because the EVO msrp is 34k, while the STI's is 33, theres your difference. Where do you get your facts old timer? EVO fanboy forums? mmhmm thought so.

You fail again.

Try $32,990 for an Evo IX and $32,995 for an '06 STi.

Actually, MSRP on the Evo dropped to $31,399 after I bought mine. My window sticker (which I still have) has MSRP at $32,990.

My facts? I get them from Mitsubishi and Subaru.

Seriously ... if you asked me if I would rather have an FQ400 or a GTR... I would rock the GTR all day long... in essence they are the same car from different manufactures...

I agree……….and I would give up a few tenths 0 to 60 for a car as beautiful as the 370Z vs. a quicker fugly looking one!

I totally agree with Ryan's statement.
what he saids is completely true.
no matter what car communities we land on,
there are going to be people who will act like kids "my car is better coz blehblehbleh..." also what i call retards.
but there are normal people too,
like people who doesn't give a fuck if your car is faster and enjoy their cars or what they do to their cars.
there will be ppl in all sort of ages.
some people who thinks GT Wings are hot
some people who thinks GT Wings are rice.

but the point is Who gives a rat's ass?
just enjoy you own cars and have a nice day

C'mon man we are not fanboys i love cars in general, I think both cars have their own pros and cons you would never find a thread where any of us evo defenders ever bash the 370z and none of us said that evo is the shiznit and it will pwn anything on it's path. At least not me, i was just surprise to see how many of you guys hate on the evo and what sucks the most is people posting wrong, bias, unproven info.

LMAO - this must be your first car... dont kill yourself.. You have not made one post w/ fact to back up anything you have said... every post you have made has been inflammatory and has been shut down by someone else posting FACTS to prove you wrong... You obviously have never been to a track and know zero about the cars you bash. I have owned both cars in question - I have had an evo X and now own a 370... I have an unbiased view of both cars and cherish them for what they are... you on the other hand cherish making misinformed posts... What did you have to edit from your post red? LOL... say what you have to say... I will be more than happy to meet you at a track to show you how the car you have should be driven... but leave the bench racing at home when you come....

Out of your 75 posts - there are maybe 2 un-inflammatory ones... whats the matter? got spanked by some mean 4 doors in your home town? Not once have I said anything bad about the 370 - **** i own one... I only outlined the pros and cons of each - but thats too much for you to take as you want to justify your money spent on a 370. I understand... and im sure a lot of others on the forum do as well.

For the sake of keeping this forum a useful source of information ... i will stop adding fuel to the fire by responding to any posts you have made / will make (im sure)...
