Depending on conditions and road, they may be faster. I mean, they're packing around the same power. I don't know what the weight is like. Both cars handle very well.

Before I bought the Z, I watched a review in wet weather between a Z and an Evo. The reviewer said the Evo was much more composed and probably faster, but that the Z was a lot more fun precisely because it was a little less controlled.

That's how I feel about a Z vs. a WRX.

I've had an evo and sti before the Z

I can attest to the handling. In all conditions those two cars are grippy as hell.

The evo gave an interesting feel, even though its weight is around the same, it has a very go cart feeling.

The STI has some nasty low end torque. Other than what i mentioned, i think the Z is better in every way.

They're quicker to 60, at least the '05 - '07s are due to the AWD you can just launch harder. Now in the quarter mile it's much closer, but the Z has the upper hand.

They are definitely fast cars! 3 of my buddies had STIs and 1 Evo

faster to 60, after that u will run away. my roommate has 1 and we play around often. even with his car being fully dyno tuned and making 320whp and im only making 293whp i can still outrun him on the highway. bellow 60 tho, dont get too cocky with those things. they can put a hurting on at low speeds

Seriously -- getting worked up about who's faster is a little on the immature side of things. (unless you are a professional race car driver)

*they're = they are.

*there = over there = direction.

*their = possession. ownership

please know the difference.
