that being said, if someone has the cash and just likes Evos because they.. well. just like them? i get it. and i say go for it.

I definitely used the potential of my last evo. I pulled off stuff in that car that wouldve gotten me killed in a mustang. Im not looking for a cruiser. With the mustangs's supposed improved handling, thats why I considered it. Its a tough call for me.

if money is not an option, then a modded mustang would be a LOT of fun.
or get a GT350

The new mustangs are sweet! However you can't beat the AWD in a EVO

Especially if you live in a area prone to snow.

You could wait until the ford focus rs comes. It will have the same ecoboost motor in the mustang. Specs look good on paper. Got me possibly ready to jump ship.

I have been looking at those, but from what I have been reading about dealer markups, I wouldnt be willing to shell out 40k+ for a car I am lukewarm on.
