2006 mitsubishi evo MR

first off .just to let you all know i am and have been a vette enthusiast and an all around car freak, old and new,foriegn and domestic,my whole life,and have gained a ton of knowledge being here and driving the z06.its made me aware of alot of things.
ive wanted a vette since forever,and i do like the z06 alot.
but its just too much of a boat for driving around town,to me anyway.love it on long drives.and the great attention it gets.but for me having driven the z for a while now,im just not feelin it- and i just like the way the foriegn sports cars drive and react.had a good run in the z-on to the evo- take care folks.

TOO MUCH OF A BOAT?????? The EVO is 150 punds HEAVIER than the Z06 and with all wheel drive it will be harder to "toss around in traffic'". To each his own though and Good Luck with the ricer croud.

You must have never had the Z06 on a real track... the Z06 will own the evo in every category other than if it's wet out and maybe 0-40 from the awd launch.

A Z06's curb weight is 3130 stock fully wet... the MR isn't lighter than that.

With a 1/4 tank of gas, headlights, and LT headers mine weighted 3005 at the drags.
