Yeah, if you call the EVO slow, you're calling the 370Z slow. They offer the same performance numbers. It's a wash.
Why is the EVO heavier? It's simple: AWD.
Neither franchise owns the exclusive on stupid design and (to be honest) product defects. They've both gottem'. Read the forums.
Let's summarize what we've got to this point (beyond matters of taste):
- Z wins on fuel economy by a lot.
- Z wins on ultimate dry road lateral grip.
- Z wins on list price.
- Z wins on access to dealers (around here, at least)
- EVO wins on seating & luggage space.
- EVO wins on sight lines out the back and sides.
- EVO wins on wet / gravel / snow lateral grip.
- EVO wins on "name brand" components
- Both are very cool cars.
Anything (beyond matters of taste) that I'm missing?
