Stock v. Stock, which '05 models under $100K will smoke an Evo?

Suppose that both cars are completely stock and driven by drivers of equal ability. By "smoke" I mean 10 or more car lengths ahead at the 1/2 mile mark if both started from a standstill. Are there any?

for the record the new M5 & GT3 are both over $100k & the new Z06 is an '06 model.
here are a few other possible candidates though:

Pontiac GTO ($34k)

Cadillac CTS-V ($47k)

Audi RS6 ($80K)

Volvo S60R ($40k)

Mercedes Benz C 55 ($56k)

No way a Volvo S60R can beat an Evo. They run 14.1 stock. I have driven one.

It would be much easier to list the cars between 30-100K that cannot outrun the Evo. There are a TON of cars that can.

'03/'04 cobra

Also he said 1/2 mile not 1/4 mile, EVO can hang with a lot in the 1/4 where bigger motors are just getting started.
