Pipe Dreams Options

So its winter time and my mind wandered away from my current task briefly..

EVO VIII VS 996TT AWD VS C5Z06....

Which one and why...

There are a lot of different characteristics for each one of those cars. I guess it boils down to what you want to drive. Front engine AWD vs Rear engine AWD vs Front engine rear wheel drive.

The EVO represents a technological feat Mitsubishi was able to perform: create a fantastic turning machine with a drivetrain setup that defies capabilities.

The Porsche 996 helped to bring Stuggart back to the forefront. Better quality, fantastic grip, blistering acceleration, all in a balanced near supercar package.

The Corvette represents an American icon. The venerable pushrod motor design 50 years old with crap loads of torque and new thinking with a rear mounted transaxle.

I personally would lean towards the 996, having never driven one. I have driven an EVO. It makes a crappy driver good and an okay driver great. I have driven many RWD vehicles. I love throttle steering!!! Great direct feeling with what the car is doing. I have driven a Cayman, and that's as close to a 996 I have come (engine almost all the way back there). However, a MR car is quite different. But the suspension design put into that stupified me. It still astounds me how the Germans every year can make that pendulum work.
