I'm sorry but it is superior, it may be a strong word and you may not like it, but it applies.

Your right don't like it, and it doesn't apply with the two cars. Yes in this comparison the ZO6 is the better performance car, but it by no means is a superiror vehicle. You see I have a feeling that you and a lot of other people on this forum seem to underestimate the performance of the EVO and EVO MR. Now look yes the ZO6 is a better performer, it does have 100HP more and if we took both cars to a dyno, I'd be willing to bet that the ZO6 even puts down more than 100HP to the wheels than the EVO MR. Yet for some reason despite this disadvantage and similiar weight of both cars, the EVO MR would hang with the ZO6 on a race track (not saying win, but it would hang with it). Now if for some reason Mitsubishi decided to release a limited edition EVO MR with 385HP, you know and I know that the ZO6 wouldn't stand a chance, that to me proves that HP for HP the EVO is the better car and also proves that the ZO6 is not superior. Look at this way, if you look at boxing, Roy Jones Jr. is (or was) considered the best pound for pound boxer in the world, now if he fought some of the top Heavy Weights in boxing, there is a good chance he could lose, does that mean the Heavy Weight Boxers are superior fighters, just mean they are bigger fighters. The same goes for the ZO6, the ZO6 would probably beat the EVO MR in race, does that mean it is superior, not to me, it just means that the EVO MR is well underpowered to the ZO6, yet it would still hang with it. Isn't it weird that a car made and bred for the race track, would have trouble shaking free from a boxy 4-Door Sedan.
