Evo X or 370Z???

It’s quite a hard choice. They both are quite similar in design and power. I think you should choose the evo X.

I might even forgo a sports car and trick out a Jeep Wrangler.

just the other day i raced a modded evo x in my stock nismo Z and i beat him(not by much but i did beat him)

he had a full exhaust, Cat delete, and running 17psi off the stock turbo
while my car was just a stock nismo(compared to the base Z all thats different is exhaust, tune, and weight) and tbh if a stock nismo Z will be some modded evos, there is alot of potential for a full bolton Z with a tune

i think full bolton Zs make close to 350whp with a tune and you might be able to make more
Nope...

To the OP - if you have to ask then get the EVOX or whatever that 4 door sedan is called.

well i can already see 2 posts that are gonna turn this into another evo X vs. 370Z love fest....please people, keep the drama to a minimum. they are both great cars with their strengths and weaknesses just like any car, no need to put one on a pedestal over another just because YOU think it is the best car in the world

a stock Z is about 250-260whp(estimate again) so another 100whp from full boltons(exhaust, CAI, heads, cams, light weight flywheel, lightweight pully, ect.) isnt unrealistic but you would have to be tuned for everything, untuned you would only really gain like 30whp from everything

but im also a z noob so chances are that im wrong

Default Keep em both!

If you are looking for opinions: The EVO X and the 370Z are both beautiful and powerful in their own right. I bought a 2012 370 Z Nismo 6 months ago, love it... but needed a daily driver.... traded in my Lexus GS and bought a 2011 Evo X MR 2 weeks ago.... love it. Like being married with a mistress (figure it out) . Plan on modding the hell out of the EVO, but keeping things mild with the NISMO for the time being. EVO is much easier to mod and tune as you know... As far as p***y appeal. Get far more mature looks with the Nismo... but occasional young stares and smiles in my X I'd keep them both... livin' the dream!

you cant go wrong with either car, i actually wanted an EVO X GSR before i got my Z, i decided on my nismo after reading alot of reviews and seeing both cars in person as well as test driving both of them

Not sure about cams, but with everything else stated plus tune 335+ would be what u can expect... Start looking for that 5.0/sti/evo early.
