"High performance BEAST"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

I got so excited while accelerating, I put it in 2nd gear too hard and broke the gear stick.

General comments?

I am a rally driver and my dad is the Cyprus rally champion of 1995. I have 2 evolutions one is a later model than this, which is a evolution 4 which I use for rallying and I have to say, at 4WD this cars can handle any surface at any speed on any terrain. Absolutely magical, Long live Mitsubishi.

At 280ps/6,500rpm, this car is amazingly fast and the acceleration stops your blood flow to the brain. The engine Roar turns me on, just as good as my girlfriend does!

Come on you cannot seriously say that the sound of an evo is great, they sound rubbish compared to any other performance car. Don't get me wrong, I have great time for evos, but the scooby sounds far nicer.

Hi mate, don't listen to him, he knows bull! subarus are s***! only good scoobys are the 22b and p1 and all are over 15k and cnt keep up with evos.

Evos are the best performance and sound for under 10k, the 4,5 and 6 evo are the best of the evos ever made.

If this bloke thinks subarus sound better obviously he hasn't heard a blitz nur spec R on an evo.

Regards J.
