Yea I definately can tell you stock for stock a GTO beats a Evo from a roll from expereince..........but from a stop the evo has somewhat of a advantage but its still really close........
I drove a GTO shortly after and i thought the car was amazing!

GTO or EVO? If you had asked me this question 12 months ago I would have bust a gut laughing.
The 2004 GTO was a joke, a non-hood-scooped, exhaust-on-one-side, wheel-hopping joke. I would have picked the EVO without question.
Now, a year later, the GTO has two hood scoops, proper exhaust pipes and absolutely no wheel hop. Fifty more horsepower, too. Suddenly the GTO isn't such a joke.
No, the GTO isn't perfect. If I bought one, I'd have to scrap its stupid *** spoiler, invest in a proper set of wheels with several inches of dish, and do something about all that body roll. And when I ordered those thicker sway bars, I'd buy a short-throw shifter while I was at it.
2004 GTO vs EVO = EVO wins
2005 GTO vs EVO=

the cobras arent underrated they are just slow,i ran a cobra stock for stock from a dig and a roll,from the dig four cars and from the roll a car and a half.
