The Caliber is a beast car! It's definitely faster than the X from a roll and the mods make is do 117mph in the quarter with Meth and Exhaust.

Of course they do Evo VIII/IX may be a bit quicker off line but they do not look good at all, definitely not in Evo X league aesthetic wise.

Uh. that is not true.
The Srt-4 car ended up getting a VERY bad review.

I agree with the front end of the X looking way better than the VIII/IX. But other than that.. I'm not very attracted to the rear and does indeed look worse than the previous gens.

Dude but what are we comparing, a modded Caliber SRT vs a stock Evo X??? Stock vs stock Evo X will eat Caliber SRT raw. Mod vs mod it's really an open game but Evo X will still handle better than Caliber.

My statement that the Caliber was a beast car was not because of it's quarter-mile times, but because of it's power gains through mods. That's an opinion..

I'm sure the EVO X will take the Caliber on the track, but the car still has more whp than the X stock-for-stock. And contrary to all the fanboys, the Caliber *is* making good power with mods...hence my statement.

Well let see, a stock Caliber SRT 0-60 is about 5.8 sec, Evo X GSR about 4.9sec., Caliber SRT as 285HP/260 lb-ft torque, Evo X has 291HP/300 lb-ft. Whatever you are saying doesn't really matter because stock for stock Evo X is simply a faster car than Caliber SRT, instead of making up imaginary numbers look up the specs sheets.
