I'm a little embarrased to have registered at a forum like this. I thought there was mutual respect, especially with the title of this thread. You all realize it's just a lancer right? Lots of *** talking and misinformation......

SRT ownres gets a from me. Some people just do not understand a simple word called RESPECT. Every car has it's edge and downfall. Just a note to every EVO owners, there are other great cars out there other than an EVO that deserves the same level of respect the EVO gets. And yes, even Honda's deserves them.

I must be reading a different thread, because it seems to me that 2 out of 3 responses in this thread have been somewhat positive to the SRT-4...

I'm glad there is some happy peeps around here! I like evo's, I know 2 guys who have purchased them in the last couple of months and have nothing bad to say about them. Except for they should come stock with a boost guage not as an option? Who wants a turbo with no boost guage?? Great cars guys and I look forward to killing and being killed in the future

I like the SRT-4 except for the G2 Eclipse rear spoiler. It's just to damn small for my 6'5 frame.

There's more too it than just handling. There's feel, response, driver confidence, etc. FWD just doesnt have it in that department for an enjoying, hard drive. I know they can stick with the best, I had a tricked out 92 SE-R way before Kojima =) , but give RWD a try first, then try AWD (pretty different than RWD) and see what ya like.

Ahem...the regular Lancer chassis was developed before the corresponding year's EVO. The EVO is based on the Lancer platform, but with tons of reinforcement. Therefore, your statement is incorrect.

In addition, please keep the discussion civil, you can disagree with the others, but that does not give you the right to flame other people.

Cheers

Great responses guys! I knew we all won't agree in this thread but everyone has their rights to speak their minds and as just once person said, keep it civil. I myself am looking for an SRT-4 kill and be killed and its all in great fun.
