What other cars are you considering?

I am desperately waiting to hear on the special edition evo as per some report saying it will be launched in last 6 months of production. But Until then I am also looking at few cars currently which include following cars,

infinity Q50 sport trim
Lexus IS 350 f sport
Audi S3 ( favt.)

Let me know what you guys think

Infinity, Lexus, Audi....YOU PEOPLE are the reason why the Evo is turning more and more "civilized" and full of options instead of a bare to the bones sports car lol

Earlier this year a guy brought his brand new infinity q50 at Englishtown NJ open track, 2 hard laps and his transmission was already throwing warning about overheating, he had to stop and let it cool down. lol
My evo was strong all day except need to gas up at half a tank because of fuel starvation. :X

For track/race/fun car, no replacement. For a more comfortable, but still fast daily, a Lexus IS-F or Audi S6 with the twin turbo 4.2 V8.

2016 Miata MX-5

The fourth generation of the MX-5 Miata is wider, lower and lighter than the current car. http://www.edmunds.com/car-news/2016...s-in-2015.html

The aftermarket is going to love this car.
