No doubt all the evo7 drivers will tell you that its not in the same class, doesnt have the same ability on the road etc so why did it win?? cos its the best
Didnt i say it handled well??

"The problem with the scooby is it doesn't have removeable seats, can't sit 20 people, doesn't do 100 miles to gallon" etc. We have had enough of boring cars on Top Gear. They need to sort it out! What the hellis that merc all about!

Pulling power is by far the worst motoring program ever

Autocar and Jason will never wind their neck in about the EVO VII. Both have no objectivity when they write Even my wife could drive an EVO VII fast, that how easy/ assisted to drive it is. Still at least Mitsubishi have identifed that even with all their gadgets a auto box is now needed for its target audience

So not only does the EVO VII get stuffed on the WRC, it also loses out at Rockingham

Still if the STI beat my M3 as well it must be truly a great car
Now where's my dealers number ?

Good article in Car Magazine this month - STI 7 v Evo 7 - not much in it they reckon. Evo has more power in a straight line, but the STI had sweeter handling through the corners. Evo got the nod, only just, on looks more than anything - which is strange. The STI looks may not be to everyones taste, but they are a damn sight more interesting than the Evo 7's (IMHO anyway)

Chris

PS - please can I have one of those new Lambo's please? (or the Tuscan S - I'm not fussy)

the evo looks like a family saloon with styling chucked on, the sti 7 styling looks like it has grown on it.Beautiful.
Makkinen told me he's pulling loads more birds now he's in the scooby, he only stopped at the weekend to give some bird his phone no.,A. MCcrae went home alone. ENUFF SAID

I prefer the look of the older Evo's. I guess Subaru and Mitsu have a lot in common.

Well obviously!



But the new Range Rover won car of the year? how the F*** can that happen, its a truck?

Best truck of the year maybe, but in my opinion it should be the new mini.
