I'm sure it's fun to drive and handles well. High RPMs rule. But when you take in all the factors I just don't see why you'd ever get one

I feel ya. Ive enjoyed my RX8 for the last few years and highly recommend one to someone who is willing to actually keep up maintenance with it, but I totally understand just getting a used Z or v6 Genesis instead and not having to worry about any of that

240 hp if you have a standard, pretty light for a car with a back seat, plus the perfect balance between the wheels honestly makes it a really fun track car that can take turns at 55 that Corvettes, Camaros, Mustangs and Zs have to slow down to 30 for. The MPG is a pain, but then again I'm not poor so I don't honestly give a poo poo unless gas hits $12 a gallon.

As per maintenance, its a lot better in the Renesis than it was in the predecessors.


That said my next car is probably going to be a G37 or a CTS-V

ive been planning on an 07-8 g35 mt sedan, but this winter is suppose to be ugly and i dont fancy trying to learn all the quirks of what would be my first rwd during a holocaust of snow. so im gonna wait til spring and by then may have enough cash saved up to grab a lightly used evo x

I'm not sure there's a such thing as a "lightly used Evo". I'd say look for a WRX STI or BMW with xDrive

I mean by that logic I assume it'd apply even more to an STI?

Nah, most STI owners are pretty easy on them. Evo owners seem to be a crazier group because of their reputation as both rally and tuner cars.

Anyone drive this year's Dart yet? I've heard good things about them, still would rather own the Alfa ROmeo it's built on top of instead though

The STI would be less of a reliability nightmare and will still have more than enough parts support, both OEM and aftermarket. It's game over for the Evo.

Uhhh what? The STI and Evo are both derived from family sedans, the Impreza and Lancer.

Yeah, the newer Evos are actually pretty mean looking compared to how they used to look. No longer have the same silhouette as the loving Toyota Ecco, bigger grille, wider stance.

It'd apple to any sports car owner with enough disposable income, and lack of common sense. The enlisted man.

But for realzies, ever since Mitsubishi got rid of the 4G63, the evo has been lackluster as gently caress. 2015 might make up for it with their limited production, last run models being released, but I doubt it.

Nobody who gave a poo poo about maintaining a car ever bought a loving Evo. It's guys who hated being stuck in a Civic SI and suddenly realized they could afford the payment on a $30,000 car.

In the last year, OKCupid has been overrun with old people and fats trying to get in on what the sexy people were doing. If you're willing to take the time, there is still some quality on there, but be prepared to sift out a lot of chaff. Yoga classes are still a good choice, because it automatically filters out people unable to raise their hands above their head. No drinking either.
