Interesting Video
Oaky, I know this is a Z forum and recently a guy posted about how great his EVO was and started a war.
Personally, I am not at all impressed with the looks of this car and have ZERO desire to own it but I thought some of you might get a kick out of this video comparing the EVO to a Lamborgini.
I would post else where but this is the only car forum I am subscribed to and we all like fast stuff so I thought I would post a link to my website with the video here.
It is big so I suggest broadband only.
The image quality from the original has been reduced to make this a reasonablly sized download.
It is quite an amazing video.
If this offends folks, I will ask the moderator to delete this thread.

I saw this on the Discovery channel the other night, pretty cool. I wander what kind of EVO 8 that is to make 400bhp. Not the one here in the states thats for shure. I think it's only rated for 280 or something.

I would love to have one of those 400hp Evo's, supposed to be an amazing car, but god are they ugly. If Mitsu would redesign the exterior of the car to not look like monkey vomit they would have an all around killer car. Of course I'd take one of those FQ400's in a heartbeat, I don't care how ugly it is.

It looks to me like a riced out late 1990's Hyundai
Kind of like the story about the ugliest girl in the world who gives great ... but in reverse

Is that a stock Evo? or did the 05's come with that much power? That would be a fun car to drive!! I like the Wedding Crashers commercial at the end, that movie was halarious!

I am working with tech support on why this video crashes Blaze Media Pro when I try to do more than trim the beginning and end.
As far as your question, I have no clue. I never heard of an EVO until a post showed up in this forum from an owner abut a week or so ago.
Then I spotted this show coming up on Discovery channel and Tivo'd it.
Very interesting ,but still I have ZERO desire to own this EVO.
I would love to see Discovery Channel beat the crap out of a Z like they did to this EVO
That would be another keeper video.

I like the Mitsubishi Evo VIII. It would be my idea family sedan if I was force to get a rear seat.
Also this host is pretty funny. I like his remarks and he knows his cars. Way better than Big C' from Street Fury. God I hate that guy. I really hope they get rid of him. Sorry for being off topic but great video though.
^ I really hate this guy

Wonder why Top Gear did not say how much this thing cost?
I assumed it was the same car that mere mortals like me can afford.
I want to know what that red car at the top of the website is - that is a great looking car.

Another one - The MOST expensive Porsche EVER
Here is another video that I think you would all enjoy.
It is of the the Porsche Carrera GT.
http://southriver.web.aplus.net/TopGear-Porsche.wmv
Note:It is a 60MB download - sorry
Edit: I re-compressed it to a smaller bit rate to make the download smaller but the PQ went down to far for my tastes.
