Im confused about just how fast an Evo is, specifically their 0-60 and their 1/4 mile. I suscribe to Automobile magazine and I bought a magazine called Speed in the store that is part of Road and Track. Speed magazine has a comparison of the evo and a dirt bike, and it says the evo does 0-60 in 5.6 and the quarter in 14.2. I looked around for the Automobile magazine im thinking of where they compared several sport sedans, evo being one of them, and I remember the times it had in there were similar to the ones in the other magazine.
I just finished reading an older thread on the Car Comparisons forums about who would win, a stock evo or a supercharged mustang with 420 hp, and the general consensus was that the mustang MIGHT beat the Evo, if it had a good driver. I mean if a car magazine editor can only get a 14.2 out of an evo how could a mustang with 420 hp be slower?
