I think that the test driver for car and driver does not know what he is doing. The Camaro does much better than 13.8 in the 1/4 in the right hands, and the Lancer does MUCH better than 14.4. and that 5.4 0-60 that is nonsence how come the Motor Trend guy did it over a second faster? a third of a second difference I can understant, different grades of pavement could make that difference, but 1.1 seconds! That is just an stupid driver. (or maby he just weighs 500lbs) They aparently dont know how to powershift. Well I guess that I cannot expect too much from them, they are more of a luxury car magazine insted of a proformance magazine.

Re: Lets slay some ricers!
Would be interesting to know when and where they did their testing. That'll make a huge difference.

Great news guys the Evo RS is coming to America! The American Version is said to be about 200lbs lighter, and with front LSD. Just imagin what kind of launch that will have. It is said to cost about 2k less than the normal Evo. It gets even better, they are planing on releasing a 330hp version. SWEET. The stock Evo is a BAD car already just imagin how fast the new versions are going to be. Lets see how the new GTO Judge stacks up. (if they really build it)

the lancer was estimated performance they did not do real testing for it. they tested it twice, this one was from thier first meeting with it on a track in Japan.(C/D-estimated performance:
Zero to 60 mph: 5.4 sec Zero to 100 mph: 14.4 sec Standing 1/4-mile: 14.2 sec @ 98 mph) not given time to do testing i believe. (What's new? Nothing. Familiar shape, familiar concept -- potent V-8 up front, live axle at the rear -- and after 35 years, it should be familiar. Like the Mustang, the Camaro is the antithesis of the kind of finesse represented by the Eclipse, except more so. There's nothing subtle here: Stab the throttle and hang on. Our Z28 was far and away the fleetest of these fair-weather specialists, hitting 60 mph in a brisk 5.2 seconds and 100 mph in 12.3, and covering the quarter-mile in 13.8 seconds at 104 mph. Top speed was 158 mph.) I dont think they did real testing for this eather. It was a compraro with other cars, i think c/d deletes their info on discontinued cars,cause this is all i can find in their website about it, they probibly did real testing just deleted it when chevy stoped making them.

Re: Lets slay some ricers!
Not anotehr one of these stupid Japanese versus American car arguments. Why cant the mod get in here and close this stupid thread.
You like a fucking evo? Go to the evo forums, not bitch and whine about one in here, yes. The F bodys ended last year, muscle cars didn't die in 1975, if they did everyone in the whole world would be driving a piece of shit hybrid car, with no HP. Musclecars are really dead now are they? Try saying that to the millions of die hard musclecar fans out there that still restore cars that are 40 years old, so that future generations of kids can appreciate the cars that started the big horsepower crazes today.

On a different topic, who is this ''Jared 80'' that thinks the EVO will ''smoke any SS ever made''??? Why doesn't he try racing a 69' SS 427? LOL, dumbass. |

BTW, an EVO will not beat an 02' SS in the 1/4 anyway-let alone the 69' SS427. Any big block Camaro in the 60's will make quick work of an EVO. |
