They are vastly different cars. My friend has a 600+ RWHP Evo IX that runs on ethanol. I have never been in a car as fast, but it's been turned into a total drag queen.

I would suggest most people bought the Z, because it has two seats, RWD, and a simple 6 speed gearbox.

Honestly, most people that have driven AWD and RWD cars have a preference.

If you want cheap power, you buy the EVO. If you love AWD, you buy the EVO. If you need the extra room, you buy the EVO.

The Z fills the niche of what most people would consider a sports car. Two seats, RWD, 6 speed gearbox. Until the entry of the Genesis coupe, there was nothing else that compares to the Z, without drastically increasing the price.

The two behave and drive quite differently. I would think a serious test drive in both, would answer the question of the chassis dynamics, lay out etc you would prefer
