Would love to race though......

Care to put that name of yours to a friendly exhibition around the track?




Ryan, are you by chance coming to Socal for the Redline Time Attack Finals in November with Sharif?

I'd love to see how the two of us would compare on this high speed track!

That Evo looks all business, love it. Might have sold me on the wheels too.

Thanks I'm just giving you a hard time. I love 370s, and enjoy a nice Z vs Evo competition/discussion.

Not sure yet. Probably not, it's so far away, lol. If I can make I will. The car stays on the east side of the country for the most part.

BTW didn't you used to work for Robi?

You must be smoking some VERY good **** to think a Z has better bang/buck than an Evo.

Depends on what you are looking for. If you are talking about performance/tunability only then yea the evo is the better value. But if you consider things like ride comfort, navigation, homelink, etc as well as performance, then the 370z is the better value.

Honestly Evo is almost always a better bang for the buck EXCEPT when it comes to handling...

Handling - 370 better bang for the buck
Power / tuning - hands down evo
Looks / interior / luxury - wash between the two...

Having had both i would say that the EVO is better in almost everything but LOOKS. Handling is a wash.. but with a TT kit the Z will be better in everything.

Just because the Evos computers make each turn you take feel seamless... it DOES not mean that its better than the Z. If you had the same amount of power in both cars... and similar suspension mods done... I have a feeling a Z will be getting better numbers in almost any track. AWD is nice.. but im over it... I want something that makes me feel like I am the one doing the driving not the car itself...

Where did you get your license plate frame?. And did you buy the car with tints?

I bought my plate frame from thezstore.com. Great guys over there!!!

The tint I had done. Its 35%.

As for the z/evo in looks department, the Z wins hands down. The cheap Lancer looks almost (ALMOST!!!) the same as the Lancer Evolution. Nothing looks like the 370. Pure SEXYNESS!!!
