It won't beat a stock SRT-4 or Cobalt SS TC from a roll, even a 5 or 10 MPH one. It will beat them from a digg though.

05 Corolla XRS. Good riddance! Will never buy another Toyota again after that experience.

02 RSX Type S with A-Spec goodies. The only thing I miss about that car is the cam switch at 6000Rpm. I'm sure most that traded in Hondas with K20s will agree. The sound that I-Vtec makes with an intake was pure sex.

All-wheel-drive and boost make me forget a little more everyday.

I traded in my 07 EX Civic automatic.

I didn't even get above 25mpg. I did get almost 40mpg when I went on all highway road trips, but besides that I was not impressed and I didn't even care. So I miss nothing.

I didn't exactly trade in a car to get my Evo, but if I didn't sell my car I would never have arrived here. Try to follow me on this one. . .

I had a 97 Toyota Supra that I swore I would keep forever. Last year I sold it so my fiance and I could afford a down payment on our house. Then the economy sh*t the bed so they started giving out incentives for people buying houses. One of those incentives was a $8000 tax credit for all new home buyers. So I took my 8 grand and bought my evo.

So I guess you could say I traded in my Supra for a house AND an Evo.

Nobodies beating that!

More than likely; if your racing from a roll, you're street racing! From a dig the EVO will win every time. If you want to be frank about things, the EVO in it's true atmosphere (WRC) would trounce both the SRT-4 and SS from a roll! AWD was made for corners and the dirt, not street rolls and straight lines!

It's harder to transfer power to all wheels instead of two! Bang for your buck, the EVO will win in every category, the mods list are endless! All I have to say is the EVO has been going strong for 10 generations now, where's the neon and almost extinct cobalt?

07 WRX... wish I could have kept it, but lease was up and keeping it didn't make sense.

Love the Evo for the handling, but the rex was an easier car to live with and still plenty quick.
