nine4surfah,

The EVO will run circles around the Z. The EVO handles like a Go Kart compared to the Z. The Z is a good handling vehicle, but the All Wheel Drive system on the EVO is superior to the Z's rear wheel drive.

I have owned a 12.4 at 115mph 2002 Camaro SS, a 12.7 at 106mph 2002 WRX Wagon. My Evo is the slowest.

pete3kgt,
have you ever driven a Z? My buddy has the track model and it is not far off from the EVO stock for stock. That car is VERY nice. I would love to have one along with my EVO. And yes, the EVO is the fastest car I've ever owned.

The evo is the fastest car I have now. I'm thinking, well dreaming about getting one of those new mustangs. I think they have about 300 hp hehe. The 2005 mustangs are hot.

- 1993 Camaro Z-28 (LT-1)
- 1995 Mazda MX-6 LS (J-Spec KLZE 2.5L V6 Swap)

the evo is hands down the quickest and fastest of any car i've ever owned; hopefully i'll have a 911 TT by the time i'm 30 and all that will change though :P

THe evo is way faster from a dig then anything ive had before.. But it swear when i dropped my 99 mustang gt down to 1st at 25mph it would destroy the evo from a 25mph roll. But it wasnt stock and soon enough the evo will walk on that 2 haha

Jude,

I had my Daytona Blue Track for a year, and i drove it to the max. Yes it is fast, but the EVO will accelerate a lot harder, and out handle the Z. Trust me, i actually work for Nissan North America, so i'm committing a carnal sin for purchasing a Mitsu. I just had to follow my heart, plus i can get a Z for the weekend anytime i want. I appologize if i offended you.

Check out my website I've got pic's of the MR, the Z, and my old 3000 GT.

not the fastest

Here are my other cars, including one I've sold:

1991 GVR4, sold last year, ran 11.99
1991 GVR4, still have, runs 11.3
Mirage Turbo about to be sold, runs 11.5
92 AWD Talon, stock, about to be sold, this is slower than the Evo.

I love the Evo, but it's more about the braking and turning. I already have drag cars, and don't need another one. :-)

I had a Jeep GC 5.2L V8 which was quick for a Jeep and I've had an Integra GS-R which was also fun. But yes, the EVO has definitely been the fastest to date

I've owned a couple modded 1G dsm's and also had a fantastic 93' BPU+ 3000GT VR4 until some hooker in a Focus decided to destroy it, so I bought an 03 Evo and its still stock, so its not the fastest but certainly the most fun to drive fast.
