The numbers don't lie I guess, but I have driven them both, and the Evo sure as hell felt a lot faster than the SRT-4... but for 10k less, the SRT has some punch, that's for sure.

If you want "first hand experience" go to the SRT4 forums and ask around.

it never stops w/ these threads... take any srt to a road course or AutoX and you'll find out quick why they are not a threat to the Evo...that is all i have to say

Poor SRT forum guys. They're probably sniveling about their car being discontinued and replaced with a mini-SUV.

Tell her to get it in white. Srt-4 will walk a stock 03-04 Evo from a fourth gear roll. Ive seen it with my own eyes. An 05 its real close.
Both cars are stock of course.

wow those times for the evo are slow dude. i want to say motor trend got 4.3-4.7 0-60 from the evo. and the srt-4 they got like 6.0 sec.

anybody can buy or make a car fast from a roll and brag about it, i don't get it, thats what everybody talks about, its all about how fast they can go from stoplight to stoplight.

its not about the performance of the machine your driving, its about how you perform driving the machine

hey i have raced a srt-4 from a roll and i had four ppl total in my car and i have an 03 stock evo8. he was driving by himself. and i walked him realy bad. from second gear we were close and by the time i hit third i jumped so far ahead of him it wasn't really funny. and then form third and the same thing happed.

so "F" that theory on an srt-4 can walk a 03-04 evo. the only way i could see that happen is if the srt-4 is modded or has some of the mopar parts on it
