Not at all. I had biturbo 01 S4 with a ton of mods. RWD>AWD, 2door>4door, 2seats>4seats

I do love that feel of boost though. Evo and the Z are two different cars. Both fun in their own way. Congrats on your purchase bro.

Meh. I love the EVO. Such a different ball game. I loved the Z but I see so much more potential.

Im sure you'll love your car that much more when you are out doing snow drifts and my Z will be sleeping for 4 months in its parking garage.

Who said I was driving it in the snow?

My driving season is longer, but it's not going to be out in heavy snow. I can, however, drive in light dustings or keep it out a couple months longer than I'd have the Z running around. Fo'sho.

nice ride! AWD is definitely a plus in this region.

But being a former eclipse owner (old school 4g63 circa 1992), i would never buy mitsubishi again! i'm sure things have changed, but i swore, never again!

Things have definitely changed. I wouldn't sell them now if I didn't believe in the product.

Every time I see an Evo running around I consider whether I would trade the Z for it. Sometimes I really like the way they look and sometimes not. However factory turbo and back seats are tempting.

Yes sir. Not to mention the potential. AWD is a nice plus and probably the reason I picked it up.

35R turbo, upgrade the rest of the piping, some tasteful engine mods. Goal is 700AWHP.

FYI, 700awhp is NOT the norm for a 35R on an Evo. If you're shooting for that, get a 37R. And be ready to dump a shitload on supporting mods.

I'm ready to be dumping mods. I'm not just throwing in a turbo and calling it a day. I've seen some tuned with the 35R and get 635. Hell, we had the show and there was one there in living proof.
