I'm not stick up for Ford just putting facts out there..... I believe in 1986 they made a car called the "evolution"




This car was on Forza 3.

The car posted in this thread looks like the concept for the Evo X.

An RS200 was called the "Evolution"? Oh wait, looked it up. Nope, they never called it an evolution.

Umm - There's a difference between the word "Evo", which is slang for the actual designation of Evolution #, and "Evos".

EDIT: After reading the original post - maybe there isn't if you don't bother with using proper spelling or punctuation. That's funny. People are too lazy to type properly and now they can't read because of it.

There is no need for me to display perfect grammar on these boards. I highly doubt anyone cares about correct grammar use on forums. It's not like I'm writing a resume.

I simply brought up an article due to the fact that Ford was closely imitating the "Evolution's" name, it would spark a debate.

If you get a kick out of correcting individuals on grammar to fulfill your sense of importance, then more power to you.

I think you can take the Grammar police uniform off, 9-5 is over bud. Sit back and relax, and return to your job tomorrow.

I honestly could care less about your grammar or punctuation (although if you make the effort to post I would think that you would want that post to be understood, which is why agreed upon language standards exist).

You wanted debate, so there you go. I don't think it is too similar or that it matters, let alone enough to "fk ford" over. Then I realized that someone who is used to thinking in non-punctuated shorthand would be more likely to read the name as being the same, which I thought was interesting. No big deal and not judgmental.

From your location it appears that you are in the air force. If so, thank you for service and stay safe.
