Evo X MR beats 911, Elise, and STI

Hopefully this isnt a repost but here is the Evo X MR in action. Not bad against these high dollar cars.

Not sure if it's a repost either but it's new to me! Nice find.

Reposted, but still good. That poor little STI got pooped on by everything else.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I'd take that R8 over any of them. The GTR might be faster, but its not nearly as good looking or pure.

I have never seen that video, but it is probably a repost from someone saying "GTR is awesome" or something like that... rather than the note on the MR.

They're in the exact order I expected them in.

And I agree ^. I'm a Porsche fanboy for sure, but if I could get my hands on an R8 with the same "waiting" list as a 911 TT instead of the 3-4 year R8 waiting list... I'd have one any day, those things are gorgeous inside and out, and the seating position is perfect, plus, quattro is amazing.

The STI got beat on like in a gang initiation. But in this case it failed to be part of the group for being too lame and weak.

STI was just getting picked on. But you have to get props to the EVO X MR. Most of these cars are at least double the price of the MR and the MR keeped up pretty good. Now get the GSR out there with a modded stock turbo and all the bolt ons on the car and a tune and do the test again. ( dont no if the MR's tranny can handle that much power).

I'm sure Porsche (and the Germans) are very upset...

Just have to wait until we can get all the monsters on the same track with the same driver.

Chevrolet Corvette ZR1
Dodge Viper ACR
Porsche 911 Turbo
Nissan GT-R
Mitsubishi Evo X MR
Audi RS4
BMW M3

I know the Evo and M3 will be out of their league but it will be nice to see them there anyway.

Well I give credits to the Evo X for performing better than more powerful and expensive cars like the 997 and the Elise!

What I want to see is an Evo X against the Evo V or VI in the track.
