You know what the sad part is z-u-later? Some of your other posts (not relating to me or Evo's/STi's/STI's) actually have good information. If you'd apply that here you might learn a thing or two instead of constantly insulting other people's cars.

Yeah, because Z's never had any problems... 
All cars have their fair share of problems.

STI!!!!!!
I had an 04 supercharged Z running 425.38 to the wheels.
I still like my sti better, and it's curently running 348 to the wheels. Also the torque on this car is amazing!!!!!!

I drive an 07HR and my roomate drives an 06 EVO SE. He spanks me on the line but I beat him at 30+mph rolls. Nobody here needs education about how fast an Evo is but I think alot of people under estimate the HR compared to it. In daily driving I just feel like the Z is faster due to turbo lag on the Evo. And when we roll together and meet girls they always say "Nice cars! I love that Z". However the Evo will get you some supercar kill moments. As for the STI....its like the Bizzaro Superman to Superman. Has everything Superman does in an uglier package but just can't seem to win. I would get the Z 100x over.

Why sit here and argue..over the internet..about which car is better and which should be bought? Honestly, everyone here, whether you are a Z owner or not, has bought their car for THEIR own reasons. Arguing about which is better is a never ending battle. This thread has been discussed so many times before and it always turns into a Evo vs STi vs Z flame fest. And why does it automatically come down to a STi or Evo for a 4 door? What about the Speed3? Or just settle for a Veyron if you want a fast coupe. Seriously, to each his own. Have your "friend" drive the cars. That simple.
...the Veyron comment was a joke...please don't put a 4th mortgage on your house to get this...

Please don't act like your above anyone. Theres a part of you that bought the car for some asthetic value. If your trying to wife then yes the car should not matter. However when your rolling around town on friday/saturday night looking to take someone home.....every advantage helps. And you are just kidding yourself if you don't think every girl loves a nice car. A nice car gets the girl in the passenger seat more attention and they feel like its not a waste to go home with a guy whose got his act together enough to afford something nice. If its your prerogative to not associate with a female that may seem shallow for these reasons thats cool. But don't hate on guys telling them they suck at life when they are just doing what they can to hook up.
