oh not at all. it's the fastest car i've owned. it's just that diet evo is the closest description of our cars. i know many EVO drivers would agree. it's definitely not a turbo lancer, but it's definitely like an EVO minus the good sugary bit. what you're left with is something slightly bland, similar in punch and looks, but not the real deal.

long time coca-cola classic drinkers would be totally turned off trying a diet coke, some even being revolted or offended. that's what an EVO X owner feels like after driving a stock RA.

Your analogy reminds me of the "New Coke" fiasco back in the 80s.
Apparently the RA to the EVO is like New Coke to Coca Cola. .

This would be fun:
