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...

996TT but i'm biased smile.gif

Honestly I didn't think it would be THAT hard to make my ix run with a stage 2 996TT (a flash and an exhaust), but my brother took his to the strip 2 days ago and rolling into it ran an 11.6@126.9 with a 2.2 60'.

Granted i'm sure you can make a C5 Z06 do that too, but you lose the AWD which is pretty important to have all year fun smile.gif

I still think the EVO's are the best bang for the buck, but to make one do upper 120's on pump gas isn't exactly easy and It probably won't be reliable anymore.

Obviously there's alot more than just drag strip times for the 3 cars. I've driven all 3 (although an ix instead of an viii), and i honestly believe the evo is the most fun car to drive around town, it's by the far the most tossable and handles just as well about anything on the road....if not better.

But the thrill of the 996TT still takes the cake! And i hate the way the c5 z06 drives, so even though it's fairly cheap now and does everything well, It just feels like crap to me.....
