It sure is a repost, but it's so great vid that I don't mind if it gets posted again every month. In my opinion, it is the best evo vid ever. And if someone here has not seen it, then it is definetely worth to posti it (again)!

jeremy clarkson ran the fq400 in 6th gear i believe against some pos car and the pos car out accelerated it even though both cars had a mile long runway or something. by the time the turbo spooled up for the Evo the runway was already over. also the turning radius is ridiculous huge. what else.....i think that's it. the turbo lag thing is pretty trite imo.....it's just like getting into the powerband of cars...who would ever race with a turbo car without getting the turbo to spool first?

all IMHO. i might have remembered some details wrong or what not, don't flame me please. thanks u're the best.

He also didn't like the the 4 mile per gallon consumption vhen driving all out. And he also mentioned the drawbacks in 4000 mile tyre change, 4500 mile service. They tought the fq320 is the way to go.
