Evo's have a heritage albeit shorter than the vette.. How many Rally win's do we have ? I honestly don't know and i'm sure it's no where near how many vette's win's in FIA classes like GP GTS GT3 Grand prix and Le'mans type racing
I'm by no means a Vette fanboy but i do respect all kinds of cars that are in a sense "under dogs" and when you look at a Zr1 compared to a Farrari 458

Then you get your 97,000 msrp GTR in the mix. which in my opinion is also an underdog in comparison to well anything that costs more.
Just like the evo, in 100% stock form still beats out quite a few cars that cost 20k more than it's regular price. Put 20K under the hood and it then beats out cars 4 times it's price.
remember the evo viii vs lambo top gear vid
lol then remeber the turbo lag at the end of that vid lol pretty funny
anyways Everyone has something funny/stupid to say about the evo. but we all know it's a very capable machine!
ps out of all the top gear vid's the usa snow race was my fave
sadly this vid has no sound

A couple of weeks ago:
Me: I want to trade in the Ralliart for an Evo.
Wife: Does it have cup holders?
Me: Umm, yeah, it's pretty much the same setup inside we have now, but with better interior.
Wife: Okay, whatever, just as long as it has cupholders.

I don't think everyone knows, but i work at a mechanic shop and always hear good compliments about my car. Until yesterday that is...a honda del sol owner stoped to get his oil change done. So, im working on his car and noticed he had a swap on his car. I tend to compliment on others car as well. So we are talking about his b16 swap in his del sol when he says...
Del sol: So what you got done to your "Little" Lancer??
Me: In my head i was like, "WTF! if only he knew what it is"
So i let him think its a Lancer for a little longer...
Me: Oh you know just a few bolt ons
Del sol: Oh full bolt ons? Man you should turbo charge it.
Me:
I finally told him it was an Evo, and mentioned all come turbocharge.
Lol he thought he knew what an Evo was until the turbo part. So i showed him my clean engine bay, and he was stuned to see what my car was equipped with.
