1st 1994 integra gsr

2nd Dodge Neon Srt-4

3rd 94 chevy silverado (current vehicle)

haha I was waiting for someone to post that link from Top Gear. Its the first thing that came to my mind when you said you heard that evos were hard to drive. Obviously its doesnt drive itself. Whats important to note is that the evo is a very capable car. It can do things that most other cars wouldnt even dare to try. This can give you a sense of over confidence. That is where the evo can be dangerous. As long as you take it easy you will be fine.
