Has anyone written to Autoweek to tell them their Evo had something wrong with it to net a 14.5 @ 91?

I seriously think Autoweek just doesn't like Mitsubishi. Mandel is the only journalist I've heard say he didn't like the Eclipse concept All he did was look at it at a car show and he said no. Probably could have cared less about the car's internals. I think they just don't like the boy racer image or sport compacts (drop top weekend roadsters aside) in general and unfortunately Mitsu has been stereotyped with such an image.
The hypocrisy never really ends. i've heard Mandel say that he didn't think a sports car could have 4 doors, and then say at a different time that the CTS-V was a true sports car.
Apparently, a car is only allowed to be as fast, racey, and stripped down as a GT2 if it comes with a Porche price tag :P
