comon now....... you could pry drive that vette across the country, you'd be lucky to make it 200mi in that evo without something breaking

Equal performance at a little more than half the cost is still fairly impressive.

I think your talking about the C6 Z06 that holds those kind of numbers. And I will agree that the new one is yes an impressive car, but the car in that video is not a C6! The car in the video is closer to a 13flat car stock, and those cars in my opinion are not impressive at all! I would agree that the evo is a well more rounded car performance wise then the older Z06

I am not a fan of the reliability of the Evo however, so I will agree with you on that note 100%

Just my .02 not that anyone asked

the old (C5 ZO6's) are well capable of the numbers i stated, a GM hi perf. mag got a C5 Z06 in the high 11's bone stock..... straight from c&d the standard C5 vette pulled .92 on the skidpad, the C5 Z06 has better suspension and wayyyy wider wheels/tires (cant find the issue with the C5 ZO6's in it)

a 13sec car stock eh? you've got some reading to do......

you impressed yet?

hmmm.....well thats cool...every stat that I have ever read on them is around 12.7-13.0 quarter. Anyway just personally not a vet fan, but I agree the Z06 would be the only one to buy if one was to buy one.

Engine noise:

BIG Single Turbo Supra spooling > EJ25 w/ catless TBE > V8 > Evo > Lawn Mower > Sewing Machine

HA thats awesome! I would swap the first two though, I LOVE the sound of the big H

SonicBoom · 02-05-2007, 01:21 PM

Supra>V8>ej25>lawn mower>sewing machine.... Nothing beats a Supra with a huge baskeball sized turbo. I was standing next to one on a dyno and it almost blew my ears out! Sounds like an F-16 fighter firing up! Still love the sound of a blown V8 though... I love my STI but I'm not an american muscle hater like the majority of this site..

karr1008 · 02-05-2007, 01:30 PM

V8 = Respect.
inline 4 with a hand grenade in an attempt to over take a V8 = Some limited respect.

**CicioSTi** · 02-05-2007, 03:29 PM

I am not an American muscle hater at all, just think the Subaru has a much much more unique sound.

1FSTSTI · 02-06-2007, 05:42 PM

both sound sweet. the second race evo had a slight jump on the vette. Personally i like the sound of the vette when it was pulling out of the garage type thing in the beginning of the vid

Z06'>all IMO, love them and sometimes wish i would have gotten one over my sti, someday....

same here, i never even planned on buying an sti until i moved to where i did. If i would have stayed where i was and didnt transfer schools i would be rocking a z06 along with a beater 4wd for winter no questions asked!

mofoSTI · 02-11-2007, 01:19 PM

Sounds wicked

burnin4 · 02-11-2007, 05:57 PM

the video was awesome!!! new age awd 4 banger with a big a$$ turbo marginally beats the traditional built/blown Z06. that isnt suppossed to happen, and I loved it. that's what it's about

i prefer the sound of the boxer engine, however the Z06 and evo were both music to my ears. I love anything fast!!!
