I like my Evo. It has lots of nicks on the paint, lots of whiny noise from the tranny, eats gas like a hog, took $$$$ for mods, requires constant maintenance, etc.
20K miles, drove down to Disneyland twice from SF, shift at 7500+RPM, hit 65+mph within a block and have enough room to stop with ease. Drives like a high end sports car but with 4 doors.

But if you want something more luxury with better paint, interior, and decent performance, I would get the G35. But, if you don't care about what's on the outside or luxury and only care about what's in the inside and performance value (engine, awd, etc.) then the Evo is a great car.

My future plan is to get a Prius and mod the Evo to hit 11's then I would have a car for most daily things like driving to work and a car that's as fast or faster than a turbo Porche.

All depends on whats important...

If your looking for performance handleing and mods go with the Evo

if your looking for a more comfortable less rigid car consider the STi or audi S4

If your tight on cash and like what you have keep it
