^ Insanely faster. You shouldn't even mention Evo or Z in the same paragraph that even contains the letters R, S or X.

You know thats the truth though. They might be about the same price give or take but the Z looks a lot more expensive.

My Evo definitely "seemed" faster because of how the power is delivered and the steering was a lot sharper...but I have to admit...driving around in the Z is a lot more satisfying. I'm not sure really how to quantify it other than just the feeling the Z gives me when I drive it.
Bottom line...have them drive all 3 and make their own decision. Don't rely on the opinions of others because we're not paying for the car.

Sure, they do it NA, but they have an extra 2 cylinders and 1.5/1 liter of displacement on top of the Evo and STI (respectively). So next time, try doing a bit more research before posting.

Not to diss on the EVO I think they are great cars, and yes, even think they LOOK sick. But one time 5 of us were in my cousins EVO and we were going up this huge ramp in a parking garage with cars close behind. He killed his clutch because he had such a hard time goin up the ramp due to the lack of turque. Or he jsut couldnt drive, just thought it was really funny.
The Z looks good. The Evo looks good and are fun to look at. To me though, being 31, I just cant imagine myself being seen in one.
I got the Z even though I read that it can be a pig and it doesnt win too many comparos. I got it cause it was is good looking and cheap HP. But truely to my surprise, I love it more and more everyday.

If he want a car for the looks then go for 350z, if he wants speed then go sti, and if he wants it for a lil bit of looks and speed then go evo unless he is planing on doing some upgrades then i would go with 350z ofcourse.

If you're planning on upgrades short of FI then a Z is a waste of money (in the sense you're thinking). For under $1500 an Evo IX can run 11's. If money isn't an issue, then the Z is an easy choice (unless you need four doors). I'd sure as hell have a Z if money wasn't an issue.
These fucking threads have been beaten to death... all it takes is a test drive of each to make a choice.
And I'd realy like to see that Forester take an '07 in the 1/4 or on a track... that damn thing doesn't stand a chance. All it has is a slightly quicker 0-60.
