I agree. The 370z is much better looking and doesn't scream boy racer. Right now my lap times are approx. 5 seconds slower than in my Evo, but it is nothing seat time can't cure.

You guys are to much with the herpes lmfao!!! I went to the dealer and they want to give me 23000 for my z and in top of that i had to pay 5,000 for the evo. Have to give it some thought. Both are 2010 i just dont want to end up leaving my z im the origianl owner and know what has been done to my car and getting into the evo not knowing how the previous owner took care of his ride. Carfax does not state everything .

Yeah, when you buy a used car, you buy someone else's problem.

Tough choice, though. Evos are fast and fun.

Just for reference of how fun Evo's are. This was with full bolt-ons + FP Red and a slipping clutch, along with what i now know, was a shitty tune.

Me beating a 05 Viper with Intake, Headers, Test Pipes, Exhaust, TB, Tune and Cams

Me beating a Corvette, not sure of the mods (if any)
EvoX Time Attack #1 - YouTube

I also beat a 09 Viper ACR, but didnt get a video of it. I thought when i pressed the record button, i was turning it on, but it actualy turned it off.

Also here is a video of the first time at the drag strip with the FP Red setup, this was the night the engine blew, which is why i only ran a 12.4@112.

And the result...
