evo8 vs 350z

[pokebmw]

Help, guys... which one is a better for the money and performance (with no mods) if you had a choice???
I have been waiting for the 350 to drop in price; Love the car in all aspect of it... but I like awd too.... that's the dilemma.....!
thanks.

Meh- get the 350Z unless you live outside the US of A- the Evo VIII for the US market is just a re-skinned Evo V with fancy seats- while the 350Z is the real deal- all around class, performance and perfect handling and balance

hard comparo it comes down to personal taste. your trying to compare a sleek two-seater with two wheel-drive and a v6 to a shoebox four-door with awd and a turbocharged I4. I'd take the Z but thats just me.

How about performance...? and ride...?

The EVO out performs the 350Z in almost every aspects.

Have you check out the G35 coupe? Very nice car. I'd take one over the 350Z and EVO any day.

g35 coupe is a basically a 2+2 Z with a longer wheel base and weighs a bit more but is still a great performer......just a little to fancy for my taste.

Evo over the 350Z...G35 Coupe over the 350Z anyday...

ya all,i will give the 4 sure answer i have 3 car 350z,sti, n evo....i will still go 4 350z ,do u all ever see a farrari wit 4 door....on them 3 car ..them girls will go 4 350z 4 sure...

[youngvr4]

yeah he's right about the girls
but evo-8 kills it in all aspects of speed and handling
there is no car out under $40,000 that outperforms the ev0-8
and the sti, they were designed for rally handling and just so happen to outperform the c5 corvette in all aspects exept in top speed.

i'm going for the evo-8

I'm going to have to go with the EVO on this one. 350Z sweet ass looking ride for sure, but flat out performance you get much more out of the Mitsu. I don't care if it has 4 doors, 2 doors, or 50 doors...if it outperforms it outperforms. Just look at what it has done in the WRC. It could even be argued that the EVO is replacing the skyline as "king of the hill"

By the way did any of you notice Lotus is planning to release the Elise to the US. Sweet!!

Well the question is, do you like to drive in straight lines or curvey ones?

I vote evo

[disco192]

The only worry i have is that it is ALOT of power out of a 2.0L running at insane boost. Makes you question the reliability of the engine.

Just a thought

true...it is harder to maintain a turbo engine than a N/A engine,
But I think Mitshubishi kept the 4G63 engine in there for a reason
