Why even start a thread on an EVO board when your looking to buy a Comaro, WRX or Evo X, when all of us drive EVO's. Of corse it's going o be bias... Test drive them all like stated above but don't get upset when all of us shout EVO. When I went to purchase my EVO, no other car had my attention and that still stands to this day!

Just be prepared to fill up every 240 miles or so with the X.

You forgot the 5th option.

5. Paypal Dvscore 20k.

I choose the 5th option ;-)

I say go with the Camaro. Good luck!

You have a tough choice.

I guess I would go with the camaro, love the retro gauges in the cockpit. I like both cars mentioned, but what the heck i have an 8..

I still get goosebumps driving the evo though! Also, if you go evo route, after a tune your range will drop below 240miles. I think i get just over 210 miles per tank the way i drive it.

thanks guys i do understand the bias, and ive made my decision, Im going cAmaro. J/k the Evo is what i want so ill probalby get it, gas sucks though hunh?

Mods i'll do are Tsudo exhaust(+60hp supposedly) , Eibach springs ( million mile warranty) and what do you reccomend for and intake (oil kills MAFs) ?? Especially since i wont be tuning this car, because I love a warrany to even risk tuning.

lol exhaust +60HP??? I think you need to do some more research on how this stuff works...After I installed my exhaust,ic pipes, ic, and intake pipe I dynod 196...after my tune w/ these mods I dynod 302...

I've got 300 + miles on a full tank.

Any mods to these cars will not exceed intake, exhaust, lowerd, and maybe bigger rims if I'm feeling saucey. Thanks

...and you failed to search about springs?!
Which springs to go for.


go get your camaro.


regarding the price for the EVO X, it will depend on where you get them from. Here's a good start to find the price you may be paying for.

How much should I pay for an EVO X

goodluck.

thanks dick, but i did look around lot despite all the non serious responces. Even before this thread I was about to buy an new 08 evo gsr sss w/ nav, for 29,300 MSRP of 26,300 i just didnt know if that was a good deal compared to waiting till I get back for a 2010, and hey im in another F** country for 6 months.


** End of Thread **

I have a lot of money now, being deployed, and I'm looking at a new car when I get back in Dec 09. I live upsate NY so AWD is a +, but my FWD does fine for a cpl more years till I move. OK-

My options are anything at or around 33k just so I dont go too expensive.
1. 2010 Evo x gsr
2. 2010 Camaro SS 6spd $31K
3. 2010 wrx
4. dont know lol

- I know this is pointless but I love the Evo's looks, but its so damn heavy.
- The Camaro is 426hp and hott also, at the same price, but not AWD... hmmm
- The Wrx has engine problems, doesnt look as good, but it is faser 0-60 (4.7), and save $8k, but it runs way too lean to modify safely...

So my question is, is it worth the $$ 33+,000 ?? Ive done all the reasearch on all three, months of reading, can I get a lil help here. What should I buy, pay, recommended colors, ect...

Any mods to these cars will not exceed intake, exhaust, lowerd, and maybe bigger rims if I'm feeling saucey. Thanks

I am 57. I have had many cars. I grew up in Italy. Buy an EVO X. I have an EVO IX an it moves, its rough riding, doesn't have criuse, can't drink coffee on a bumpy road, had to learn how to feness the throttle instead of just pushing down.....in other words flooring it in a corner on HWY 2 in SoCal gives you great experiences with spin outs/ i have had two due to my excessive throttle use. My son has an IX with water meth and easily eats eight cylinders for lunch. Buy an Evo X. Better yet buy an EVO IX SE. Many nice used ones out there... i say this because you haven't experienced the type of control and power an evo has, taste the waters before you jump.

Test them all an maybe think about used because you don't seem to have an solid path on any of the vehicles mentioned.
