The Evo is a balls out in yer face car and therefore down to the individual concerned as to whether they like it or not IMHO.
Yup, subtle they aint!
Cars like Evo's and Scoobies always attract the attention of the old bill and very often the theiving scumbags (wherever you live).
What, as in constantly getting pulled over for speeding, or "is this your car, sir?"
Sadly thre are some basics facts that you cannot get away from...
If you want space rocket performance you can expect space rocket fuel consumption...basic chemistry.
Not really true. If they (Mitsubishi) properly developed their GDI technology (similar to the VAG FSI, but Mitsu couldn't get it to work properly), they would be able to get better fuel economy. However, because they lack any development, and merely use "chuck as much fuel in as possible" ethos, then they suffer with poor fuel economy.
My RS4, with over twice the engine displacement, and probably twice the kerb weight, can achieve better performance, AND better economy. Heck, even my last S4 (4.2 V8, without FSI) could whip Evos.
If you want a car that handles well you can expect harsh suspension .. basic physics.
Again, no. Both my RS4, and my last S4 out handled current Evos, and the suspension is far from harsh.
If you want supercar performance at moderate prices you can expect plastic interiors..basic finance
No, again. It only seems to be the Japs who make shyte interiors. Even on the NSX, the interior was shocking.
