Thanks guys! I'll definitely end up back in an evo at some stage, but for the time being I have stepped over to the dark side.

Some pics of my new beast!

Me personally, what I miss from owning my R32 GTR was the low end torque vs an evo and the sound, best sounding car I've ever owned. Handling wise, the Evo has the R32 beat for sure.

The GTR has a very mechanical feel, it's solid, and the inputs feel very analog. the power delivery is more progressive in the r32. whereas the evo felt solid and sticky on the road, the power delivery and inputs felt direct, but almost rubbery and light in the evo compared to the gtr.

The evo could possibly be the best daily car ever made, so light and easy to drive, yet an absolute beast when needed!

I definitely think i may end up with another evo IX in the future for family duties.
