It's all a matter of taste, and money, but these are two completely different cars. I will say this though, an Evo can do anything a Mustang can do, but without all wheel drive, the Mustang can't do the same as an Evo and thats just a fact. Rain, track, snow, the Mustang will not perform the same, but in a straight line, that's what Mustangs do best and for cheap. With an Evo the possiblities are much greater but sometimes at a greater cost. Both are legends and the debate will never end.
@afgandominator Money? Lol I have 600hp and it cost me 2500 bucks. Let's see a Evo make 600 wih 2 grand. Plus power alone isn't the only factor, weight and gearing is also an issue. My mustang weighs just under 3300 lbs! That's 300 lbs lighter than a gt! I can also turn boost up to 18 psi which means I will be making 700-750 and it will only cost me 90 bucks for a pulley and 100 bucks for a tune.
@killakdc5 and you will sit and spin wile an all wheel drive 300hp evo runs off and leaves you. 750hp won't do you any good if you can't get it to the ground.....
@cademcnown25 Do not insult me. I have been racing cars for 15 years. I have over 650 HP in my car right now and i put it down with no issues. its all about suspension. My 60 ft time is 1.6, lets see a 300 whp evo try to keep up with me. I also have less rotational mass, i dont lose as much HP. Evo's have to spin 4 axles, rims, and tires, i have to spin only 2! I also have a lightweight aluminum driveshaft. You should learn before you speak.
@killakdc5 you are so full of shit, it's almost comical. "racing for 15 years" lol. i don't give a fuck.you want a button or something? a 250 hp mustang spins like crazy and you expect me to believe 600 wouldn't? shut your fucking mouth idiot
@cademcnown25 Your so full of your moms dick!! The only person spinning with 250 hp is a fucking moron. I put my power to the ground with some very accurate suspension setup. I have no problems. Your the fucking idiot. Stay doing what your good at, eating your own ass.
@killakdc5 you have a 3v correct? 05-10 gt? $2500 buys a supercharger and all the bolt-ons needed to go with it? I didnt think those stangs could handle that much power without strengthening the internals? I have yet to see a 3v pushing over 600 without internal work, 2500 bucs and you will have over 700 hp when u turn up the boost? HMMMMMMM seems like u will blow your motor first, like I said......money buys speed,
@killakdc5 you built your engine and bought a supercharger/turbo for only $2500?? Where the hell do u buy your parts and who installs them? Thats some great deals!, lol Ive only heard that 450-500 is the limit on the 3v's, heard some people have broke stuff going over that, Im not bashing you, Im a FORD guy, just did not like the 05-10 stangs at all, and never heard of spending only $2500 bucs and gaining over 300hp, but hey thats some serious power, I wouldnt race u lol
@afgandominator i have a 500hp crx that will shit on your evo and and most of the people in these comments.go look on my page i dont just talk i have the car im talkin about.
@Punisher7121 where to begin... first of all I'll let the looks comment go; to each his own. 4 cylinder? and? just because it takes 4 less to make the same power doesn't make it worse. it's an engineering marvel to get that much power from something the size of a soda bottle. And there's always the whole 4 door thing. pretty nice to have 3 other people along for the ride, very comfortably that is. not to mention if price is an issue I'd just get an evo IX and have an even better track car.
@VortexIntegra If you actually watch the speed signs, the mustangs showed first, meaning it passed the line before the evo, so the Mustang won the race, not the Evo.
I like the title of the video "Evo X vs supercharged Mustang GT" These rice burner owners always make it look like their car is "stock" vs a modified muscle car. Quit trying to mislead because you know your cars are modified as well.
All I know is I can drive my Evo in a blizzard, Mustangs...not so much. With the amount of money you spend putting a t/c or s/c in a mustang i can but simple bolt ons and still stomp you
@dewey12311991, good point. But I wouldnt go as far as saying a blizzard. As soon as it gets more than 6in ur lil evo is as good as a Mustang nda snow.
@dewey12311991 Completely false. T/C Mustangs on low boost are making in the area of 500whp, S/C for the Mustang range but 5psi on a 4.6 2005+ GT makes about 400 to the wheels....guaranteed 12 second car. But to each their own. Not to mention in a blizzard you're just as screwed as the mustang in your evo. All of your points are either false, invalid, and generally misinformed. But if you like Evo's then it's your choice. Cheers.
@ADD8oi awd evo or 2wd overpowered ford? nonetheless awd evo with road settings for dirt snow and pavement vs... f tart trac control stang doesnt carry anything on an evo ive run both...
@ADD8oi Are you fucking retarded? "Not to mention in a blizzard you're just as screwed as the mustang in your evo" ITS ALL WHEEL DRIVE. I love V8's, but you honestly can't be serious when you say that lol That's just pure stupidity
@PFCTurner311 IDC that it is all wheel drive. It still runs very low profile tires which wouldn't get much grip. Not to mention that in anything over 5" the Evo is just as fucked. I drove my last Mustang clean through winter with no problem...on BF Goodrich all season 235/50/18 ZR factory tires. Evo's are too low to the ground and your tires will lose pliability just like any tire. Thus traction issues and driveability issues. Blizzard=7-12"s where I'm from...good luck with that argument
@PFCTurner311 On winter tires the AWD evo would still run into traction issues in anything over 5". But for street use any car would be fine. When it comes to sports cars nowadays it really only comes down to a matter of taste and opinion.
@dewey12311991 Normally I agree, but an Evo generally costs more than a Mustang GT. Examples, a 2008 Evo with has a NADA retail cost of 26K while 2008 Mustang GT with 60000 miles is 20K. 2010 EVO 32K, Mustang GT 26K, etc....6K should cover a S/C and apparently, as shown here, puts a 4.6 Mustang just over an Evo. A S/C on a new 5.0 would murder an evo....
@Punisher7121 Don't forget the Evo is an AWD rally car that is a wondeful on a strip, in the snow, on a dirt road, and on a track. I don't usually see that many mustangs with so much diversity. They're usually stuck on a hill when it snows or stuck in a ditch.
@gabedp21 Seeing as how I live somewhere that snows ZERO times a year, and don't make a habit out of driving in the dirt....The Evo's "benefits" you've indicated here wouldnt mean much to anyone that lives in my area or in a similar environment.
@rpguy04 Dipshit...My point wasnt about either car holding or not holding their value. It was bottom line that the price difference in the pre 2011 Mustang GT and Evo allows you to SC the Mustang and have it run with the Evo without spending more than cost of the Evo itself. And Its about taste, I wouldnt touch an Evo unless I got a hell of a fucking deal. Not that the car isnt fast, its that I have zero interest in a uninspired looking 4 cylinder....
@Punisher7121 You are a fucking moron, your reading comprehension is none existent. You brought up the price of the mustangs into the equation, when both cars were new 2008 evox and 2008 mustang gt they both demanded 30k+. So I said that evos hold their values better and its true, you just posted it yourself that a used 2008 gt is 20k and a used 2008 evo x is 26k. I'm wasting my time even replying to you since you wont comprehend this statement either.
@rpguy04 You fucking retard. Not arguing about holding value, point was never about that. It was simply the cost, wasn't about WHY the cost is greater for an EVO. A challenger SRT8 cost is greater than both, but by saying that am I implying it holds it value better? No, asshole. By the way, a 2008 GT Premium MSRP'd $27500 and a 2008 EVO GSR MSRP'd $33000. So common sense would say it still has a higher cost used down the road. Still not saying either car holds value better troll.
only bounced it off the rev limiter how many times? lol then they cry about busted pistons in just a couple months. and yes mustangs are great in the snow.....for testing out your truck or suv's ability to get around. 4cyl is always 4cyl. end of story. 8cyl + 4 valve per will always eat it up in hp. nothing will make everyone happy or do everything perfect. i want my evo to rock crawl in moab in 8ft of snow...with low pros. until then mustang all the way. end of story for me.
@40turbojosh well thats lame lol :::oops::: i mean seriously? awd and launch control? throw an auto trans in that bitch and just take a nap....while you race. jk, seriously i was stuck in the snow in my mustang yesterday, shoveling, cussing, pissed off. at least one evo crossed my mind, i hopped in my POS RWD and just floored the fuck out of it, 20 minutes later i was on my way. who needs stinking awd? soon they will take all skill from driving an evo "just think it" and poof your flying.
@josh4208750 i know what you mean man. i use to have a e46 and i couldnt go anywhere in the snow had to get a truck for the winter lol. rwd got me in trouble a lot and i blew money on freaking tires, i deff had more fun with it more though.
Boss 302 is more than competitive with the evo, has better looks (subjective) and the tire chains are for snow only, not asphalt. Mitsubishi would be happy to sell one tenth of the monthly sales of the Mustang. Don´t you think that if the evo was so good more people would be flocking to buy it? Guess not. Mustang > evo.
@Gabedaman30 Exactly "snow only" show me a mustang with tire chains who can compete with an EVO in the snow. The only reason more people don't buy the EVO is because of price and gas also availability. There are alot more American Dealership Around in North America than there are Japanese ones like Mitsubishi. Not too mention how long Mustangs have been around for. Am I insulting Mustangs? NO. Are they as good as EVO's ? NO. What would be a better car to drive in Canada? HMM... hard choice.. not
@cerebraldamage Why is there no Mustang on the Nürburgring track record list? Shit.. there is even a Ford Focus but no Mustang. Lets be realistic.. The EVO's are called the Terminators of the Import world for a reason. Get a Tuned up EVO put it against a Mustang with twice the displacement and tuned and see who wins. STOCK, the mustang has the advantage in quartermiles on asphalt but when turns are put in, cars, weather conditions etc..the Mustang is going to be staring at the EVO's taillights.
@8packChris So you're discrediting the Mustang Because it's not a global car that is sold in Europe and aren't run in the ring, yet in has run in the best Tracks in America like Virginia race way Leguna Seca and wooped the EVO the STI and 370z Nismo and every other car it's price range plus some that are twice it's price like the M3. Mod for Mod a Mustang will rip the EVO a new one. look what a turbo will do for a Mustang
@8packChris Not where I live! Canada is not the rest of the world. An evo where I live is pretty much useless. In fact, I would say non-existent. I don´t understand what makes you think that the evo is superior to the Mustang, it simply isn´t in my opnion.
@Gabedaman30 Thats true. I am not exactly a fan of Mustangs but I am not one to blindly insult something because my taste differs. However, I am a fan of the EVO's because 1) They are amazing tuner cars and generate some ridiculous G-forces, not to mention the S-AWD 2) The look of the car I find to be very appealing and I like that I have 4 doors and performance 3) Price is spot on and Legend in Rally Racing. Are Mustangs fast? Yes.. what with a v8 isn't? EVOs are overall a better car ..
@cerebraldamage I googled it and I see the list you are talking about...ok obviously a boss mustang is going to beat a evo on that specific track it was made for that track and also the car costs more. Also pay attention to that list every single car above the evo on that list is at least 5 grand at a minimum or more then the evo...the evo is a beast of a car and a great deal for what it can do. I have one my self and i know my buddys supercharged mustang GT cant keep up with me in turns
@raptorman1632 Look up car and drivers Lightning lap a $30k mustang GT ran 3:08.6 and the EVO ran 3:10.6 The GT is way less expensive and spanked it @ VIR.
What's funny is that the V6 Mustang which cost less than $22k also ran 3:12.5 with the speed governor set 112mph Much faster than the old EVO MR which laps VIR 3:13.3. A supercharged Mustang isn't the best for the circuit if it's not balanced correctly but on the street where it counts you'll get walked on.
@0nesh0t0311 its whatever we can all argue this topic till were blue in the face but whats it going to solve? Nothing mustang owners like their mustangs evo owners love their evos. but I will say that everyone that has driven my evo all say its the most fun car theyve been in/ driven...btw i like how my last comment was removed...guess i made a good point
@thenolimots21, was that supposed to be English? My mustang hasn't broken down on me once. Dead battery, sure. Worn brakes and clutch? Yup, no surprise there since those things are designed to wear out in any car. Break down and leave me stranded? Not once. So you basically just admitted you're jealous.
Don't talk bull you guys !!! I own a lancer 09 and would love to be able to afford an Evo as I took one for a test drive the other week , But don't down the American muscle cars, the start of a V8 Mustang is music to the ears !!!! everyone has their own taste , Cheers !!!
@omar53333 the evo is 322lbs lighter than the cobra so why are you complaining? cobras are heavy ass 2drs dude learn your cars before complaining online
@Milehighsnake98 nope, im just loling how a little engine heavy car beats...this, come on people whats the use of a giant engine if the car is actually a shit
everybody bitches about how the EVO has a boost (15psi). An american car needs a boosted V8 cyllinder car to keep up with that evo.. that's pathetic for a classic american muscle/sport car. Man, I'm broke as most of you reading here.. I would love to own any of those cars ;P.. I own a 94 lincoln Mark VIII with a few mods on.. 13.5 quarter mile!! Not bad huh? like I said, I'm broke.. lol (I worked my ass off to have that car like it is) I wish I could afford an EVO ;(
@museman007 Actually, the EVO stock boost is 19.5psi, not 15. And a stock EVO X runs mid-high 13s in 1/4, and a stock 05-10 Mustang GT runs mid 13s naturally aspirated, stock. Bolt ons and it can go 12s easy, with no supercharger. Also, that Evo wasn't stock, but still lost. That's part of racing. Everyone loses at some point.
@TheNolimits21 Well, it doesn't take the Evo X FQ300 much to break 400bhp. All it needs is bolt-ons and a good tune, lol. But the Evo could've had a smoother launch. I own a X myself, next week, I'll have my FP Black set up (~GT35R BB). Going to MIR for the Import vs Domestic face off.
But I have to say that the Mustang did a better job on that run.
@DeAdissu3 I bought a lq9 6.0 GMT engine the design is great except one thing the put a not so great cam and springs. I changed it to a 581/588 lift and better valve springs. I wool add 2 turbos from the Volvo t5 wagon. Look up twin turbo Ute"on you tube GM's el Camino.they're selling it as a Holden over sea. It rocks
The evil is built in a country where performance is appreciated off the assembly line. On America the government restricts. If they took the handcuffs off domestic sports cars the foreign market wouldn't have a chance.
why the fuck are people trying to drag with evos anyway? The car was made for the tracks not for some boring ass str8 line run that any hill billy or teenager could drive on,
of course they need a supercharger to keep up or beat an evo. my opinion stangs suck i beat my budys 98 gt stang with my 99 gsx all the time from a dig or roll... all im saying is you dont need a big motor to go fast!
@124RAMBO nope... The biggest and baddest mustang puts out over 550hp stock. All I would do is add some wider tires to the rear roughly 335/25R-20 Then laugh while I watch you disappear in the mirrors.
@sanju2 Idiot. To each their own. It takes serious upgrades to an Evo X, which really doesn't fit anywhere since it's slower on any kind of track than the Evo 8 and 9, to beat bolt on mustangs in outright acceleration. But it works the same way for a road course. Sorry, but it's true. Put a 380hp EVO against a stock 00 Cobra R on a road course and see what happens. The R will walk away from it, straights, turns, everywhere. So don't kid yourself into thinking mustangs can't handle.
@Milehighsnake98 The only mustang that can handle is the Boss 302. Every other mustang is garbage. I'm only saying what everyone one else knows but what mustang fanboys don't want to admit. The newer the model, the heavier it is. That's how it always works thanks to increasing safety regulations and useless electronic gizmos the modern girly man of a driver demands. If mitsubishi went ahead and made a track dedicated evo like ford did, imagine the laps it would be running around the new 302??!!
@sanju2 To be quite honest, they did. It's called the EVO. The suspension is stiffer, the tires are more aggressive, and it needs all these electronic gadgets, but still gets raped around a road course by a solid axle, rear wheel drive, 3700lb mustang. That's just plain facts. It's not track dedicated. The Dodge Viper ACR-X is track dedicated. The Boss 302 is not. Neither was the 2000 Mustang Cobra R, and it is still the best handling mustang made yet. No R comp tires on them either.
@007gir Technically it's not. If you look at an Evolution VII, VIII, IX or X, you can tell they have nothing to do with rally. In the 1990s it was required for any automaker to enter a vehicle in WRC competition, they had to sell a vehicle with the same features to the public. This is why we got turbocharged 2.0L, AWD compact cars with water sprayers and multi-setting differentials. In 1999-2000 the WRC got rid of that requirement, and since then, EVO's and STI both got lower and stiffer.
@007gir And as I'm sure you're aware, low ground clearance and stiff suspension is not very good on loose gravel, bumpy roads. Just look at a picture of an EVO VI compared to an EVO IX. Or even a Ver. V STi compared to today's STi. The EVO VI/Ver.5 STi both sit much higher and don't have the big 17" wheels because you didn't want 17" wheels with no sidewall on gravel.
@sanju2 You're an ass. IF. IF. Nice dude. If crap. Mitsubishi is the lamest of the Japs. They are not a successful company in North America. Be glad you can even still get one in America. Shits WEAK.
@lmorrow4 wow......Really, mitsu host alot of parts for other manufacters..Hyundai genesis is one and that car took off...they are very successful and at one point was the largest manufacter out of japan...Research man
@Kenuwine24 Research?? Sounds more like reachING. Just go take a look at the sales numbers for Mitsubishi in North America. I rest my case, they're on a respirator and the powers out.
@Gabedaman30 i do 431 hp it a 2 liter engine wit 300 fpt in the gsr not 2 mention the 900x ams tune the evo is my favorite car so i care about the evo smh
@Gabedaman30 i know alot of people wih mustangs most of them hate them and the 2 people i know with evos are in love with them 4 door is more practical than a 2 door muscle car built of torque
@vegrunks The two people with the evos that you know are probably the two sales that Mitsubishi had last year. That´s how irrelevant they are. And I´m skeptical about the many Mustang owners that you know that are unhappy with their FORD. People buy Mustangs because they are fun and nice looking, not because of their practicality.
@Gabedaman30 no they hate it because the engine keeps breaking down and people dont know much about evo's because they dont know much about cars any1 who knows anything about cars knows an evo is 1 of the best 4 door sport cars out there thats why i love them mustangs are pretty slow and heavy as fuck they're unreliable thats why they suck on a drag strip and challengers beat them on tracks
@vegrunks Fortunately, that is only your opinion. I think very differently than you, and most of the millions who have become owners of a real legend the ¨MUSTANG¨. Good look with your EVO.
@Gabedaman30 What.. really? Who doesn't give a shit about one of the best cars (for its price) in the world? Show me a car that can drive in any condition (some say even better on snow), carry a family, hit 100km/h in under 5 seconds for less than 40,000$ ? Not even addressing the 10yr warranty. (not including the sti's, they are nice too). EVO > Mustang. I am surprised the Mustang won.
@Gabedaman30 add some tire chains.... oh ya, def legal on asphalt and rwd is great in the snow *rolls eyes.* Mustangs aren't even close to evos handling wise and need twice the displacement to even keep up with an evo. Last time I checked a Super AWD 4cylinder vehicle doesn't get put beside a rwd v8. evo's > mustangs
@sanju2 your just mad because the Mustang owned your favorite piece of shit japanese car, im sure the mustang would do pretty good on the twists and turns, right in front of the evo :P Listen to that v8, the sound of power. The Evo..... sounds like a dying squirl. I mean look at that fucking fender, how ugly can it get??!!!
@sanju2 actually the newer mustang are the best bang for the buck when it comes to american muscle, just a little work and you can have it ready for the dragstrip, or the road course, or drifting or what ever the fuck you wanna do
@yeliowmamba typical ricer/fanboy response. get over that cuz like someone said already the 5.0 beat it and almost keeps up with the m3 which has always been known for its world class hamdling. the boss straight up rapes it.
@YelIowMamba Already did, the mustang 5.0 beat the EVO and the STI by quite a bit in Car and Drivers lightning lap with professional drivers so theres no excuse there. It didnt even come close to the GT500 and the 302 BOSS comes out soon and thats built for the track, much better handling, cornering, take off, and top speed than the 5.0.
In terms of power, of course the Mustang GT500 or 302 BOSS would outperform the EVO and STI at the track. But the power output of the EVO X alone is amazing for its class. Mitsubishi is planning on making the EVO XI by 2013, which will be electric hybrid diesel lol.
@CyberGTX09 In terms of power and track racing, the new GT has them beat as well, according to reviews and test drives. The EVO is a great car dont get me wrong, its highly engineered and thats why it costs so much for a 4 banger whereas the 5.0 with a 4v V8 is much cheaper, faster, comes with a whole range of interior comforts, and all its missing is Forced Induction. In terms of performance for dollar, the mustang has the evo beat, just wait for the 302 which is built for cars like the X
@ElxxChupacabra07 well we all know that mustang is not the 302 boss (which is one hell of a machine)... but that old mustang in the video would not be able to beat out the evo in a real lap with corners.
@AgentStyles Lol I own a Evo X. I've also driven several other sports cars. The turbo is actually very small. You must not know much about turbo cars or cars that are forced induction.
@labrados12345 a s/c mustang costs 35k lol what the hell are you talking about..well that particular S197 in the video might have been a 05 06 mustang GT so it isnt nearly 35k(unless it was a 2009 GT in which i still dont believe its that much)..they are in the 15-20k range with considerably LOW mileage 2 years ago(around the time you made the comment you did) and a whipple s/c cost about 6500(not including labor) so thats about the same price as you got your evo
i dont see what the big deal is about the EVO. the new american muscle car are BAD ASS. im saving up for one as my first car. but which one should i get...
@sixDUMBbeaners depends on what you are going for man looks wise probably the camaro but i think the mustang looks just as good i just dont like the antenna. but for performance mustang all the way the new 5.0 is just beast
Wow lol evo doesn't have nitrous it's called a TC car running rich=safe. Obviously has CF front fenders and an exhaust. def not stock clutch or it would have slipped more. Diff wheels and it's sitting lower so springs or coilovers one. Good job mustang! from an evo x owner
It's all a matter of taste, and money, but these are two completely different cars. I will say this though, an Evo can do anything a Mustang can do, but without all wheel drive, the Mustang can't do the same as an Evo and thats just a fact. Rain, track, snow, the Mustang will not perform the same, but in a straight line, that's what Mustangs do best and for cheap. With an Evo the possiblities are much greater but sometimes at a greater cost. Both are legends and the debate will never end.

@afgandominator Money? Lol I have 600hp and it cost me 2500 bucks. Let's see a Evo make 600 wih 2 grand. Plus power alone isn't the only factor, weight and gearing is also an issue. My mustang weighs just under 3300 lbs! That's 300 lbs lighter than a gt! I can also turn boost up to 18 psi which means I will be making 700-750 and it will only cost me 90 bucks for a pulley and 100 bucks for a tune.

I have yet to see a 3v pushing over 600 without internal work, 2500 bucs and you will have over 700 hp when u turn up the boost?

@Punisher7121 where to begin... first of all I'll let the looks comment go; to each his own. 4 cylinder? and? just because it takes 4 less to make the same power doesn't make it worse. it's an engineering marvel to get that much power from something the size of a soda bottle. And there's always the whole 4 door thing. pretty nice to have 3 other people along for the ride, very comfortably that is. not to mention if price is an issue I'd just get an evo IX and have an even better track car.

I like the title of the video "Evo X vs supercharged Mustang GT" These rice burner owners always make it look like their car is "stock" vs a modified muscle car. Quit trying to mislead because you know your cars are modified as well.

0nesh0t0311 1 month ago
@dewey12311991 Completely false. T/C Mustangs on low boost are making in the area of 500whp, S/C for the Mustang range but 5psi on a 4.6 2005+ GT makes about 400 to the wheels....guaranteed 12 second car. But to each their own. Not to mention in a blizzard you're just as screwed as the mustang in your evo. All of your points are either false, invalid, and generally misinformed. But if you like Evo's then it's your choice.

PFCTurner311 1 month ago
@PFCTurner311 IDC that it is all wheel drive. It still runs very low profile tires which wouldn't get much grip. Not to mention that in anything over 5" the Evo is just as fucked. I drove my last Mustang clean through winter with no problem...on BF Goodrich all season 235/50/18 ZR factory tires. Evo's are too low to the ground and your tires will lose pliability just like any tire. Thus traction issues and driveability issues. Blizzard=7-12"s where I'm from...good luck with that argument

@dewey12311991 Normally I agree, but an Evo generally costs more than a Mustang GT. Examples, a 2008 Evo with has a NADA retail cost of 26K while 2008 Mustang GT with 60000 miles is 20K. 2010 EVO 32K, Mustang GT 26K, etc....6K should cover a S/C and apparently, as shown here, puts a 4.6 Mustang just over an Evo. A S/C on a new 5.0 would murder an evo....
Punisher7121 1 month ago
@Punisher7121 Don't forget the Evo is an AWD rally car that is a wondeful on a strip, in the snow, on a dirt road, and on a track. I don't usually see that many mustangs with so much diversity. They're usually stuck on a hill when it snows or stuck in a ditch.

@Punisher7121 Thats because Evos hold their values better, dingbat you dont see one on every corner like you do with mustangs (aka "me too" car).
rpguy04 1 month ago
@rpguy04 Dipshit...My point wasnt about either car holding or not holding their value. It was bottom line that the price difference in the pre 2011 Mustang GT and Evo allows you to SC the Mustang and have it run with the Evo without spending more than cost of the Evo itself. And Its about taste, I wouldnt touch an Evo unless I got a hell of a fucking deal. Not that the car isnt fast, its that I have zero interest in a uninspired looking 4 cylinder....

@Punisher7121 You are a fucking moron, your reading comprehension is none existent. You brought up the price of the mustangs into the equation, when both cars were new 2008 evox and 2008 mustang gt they both demanded 30k+. So I said that evos hold their values better and its true, you just posted it yourself that a used 2008 gt is 20k and a used 2008 evo x is 26k. I'm wasting my time even replying to you since you wont comprehend this statement either.
rpguy04 1 month ago
@rpguy04 You fucking retard. Not arguing about holding value, point was never about that. It was simply the cost, wasn't about WHY the cost is greater for an EVO. A challenger SRT8 cost is greater than both, but by saying that am I implying it holds it value better? No, asshole. By the way, a 2008 GT Premium MSRP'd $27500 and a 2008 EVO GSR MSRP'd $33000. So common sense would say it still has a higher cost used down the road. Still not saying either car holds value better troll.

Boss 302 is more than competitive with the evo, has better looks (subjective) and the tire chains are for snow only, not asphalt.

@Gabedaman30 Exactly "snow only" show me a mustang with tire chains who can compete with an EVO in the snow. The only reason more people don't buy the EVO is because of price and gas also availability. There are alot more American Dealership Around in North America than there are Japanese ones like Mitsubishi. Not too mention how long Mustangs have been around for. Am I insulting Mustangs? NO. Are they as good as EVO's ? NO. What would be a better car to drive in Canada? HMM... hard choice.. not

@Gabedaman30 Thats true. I am not exactly a fan of Mustangs but I am not one to blindly insult something because my taste differs. However, I am a fan of the EVO's because 1) They are amazing tuner cars and generate some ridiculous G-forces, not to mention the S-AWD 2) The look of the car I find to be very appealing and I like that I have 4 doors and performance 3) Price is spot on and Legend in Rally Racing. Are Mustangs fast? Yes.. what with a v8 isn't? EVOs are overall a better car ..

@raptorman1632 Look up car and drivers Lightning lap a $30k mustang GT ran 3:08.6 and the EVO ran 3:10.6 The GT is way less expensive and spanked it @ VIR.
What's funny is that the V6 Mustang which cost less than $22k also ran 3:12.5 with the speed governor set 112mph Much faster than the old EVO MR which laps VIR 3:13.3. A supercharged Mustang isn't the best for the circuit if it's not balanced correctly but on the street where it counts you'll get walked on.

Bolt ons and it can go 12s easy, with no supercharger. Also, that Evo wasn't stock, but still lost. That's part of racing. Everyone loses at some point.

ralatorre9 3 months ago
@sanju2 Idiot. To each their own. It takes serious upgrades to an Evo X, which really doesn't fit anywhere since it's slower on any kind of track than the Evo 8 and 9, to beat bolt on mustangs in outright acceleration. But it works the same way for a road course. Sorry, but it's true. Put a 380hp EVO against a stock 00 Cobra R on a road course and see what happens. The R will walk away from it, straights, turns, everywhere. So don't kid yourself into thinking mustangs can't handle.
Milehighsnake98 3 months ago
@Milehighsnake98 The only mustang that can handle is the Boss 302. Every other mustang is garbage. I'm only saying what everyone one else knows but what mustang fanboys don't want to admit. The newer the model, the heavier it is. That's how it always works thanks to increasing safety regulations and useless electronic gizmos the modern girly man of a driver demands. If mitsubishi went ahead and made a track dedicated evo like ford did, imagine the laps it would be running around the new 302??!!
sanju2 3 months ago
@sanju2 To be quite honest, they did. It's called the EVO. The suspension is stiffer, the tires are more aggressive, and it needs all these electronic gadgets, but still gets raped around a road course by a solid axle, rear wheel drive, 3700lb mustang. That's just plain facts. It's not track dedicated. The Dodge Viper ACR-X is track dedicated. The Boss 302 is not. Neither was the 2000 Mustang Cobra R, and it is still the best handling mustang made yet. No R comp tires on them either.

007gir 3 months ago
@007gir Technically it's not. If you look at an Evolution VII, VIII, IX or X, you can tell they have nothing to do with rally. In the 1990s it was required for any automaker to enter a vehicle in WRC competition, they had to sell a vehicle with the same features to the public. This is why we got turbocharged 2.0L, AWD compact cars with water sprayers and multi-setting differentials. In 1999-2000 the WRC got rid of that requirement, and since then, EVO's and STI both got lower and stiffer.
Milehighsnake98 3 months ago
@007gir And as I'm sure you're aware, low ground clearance and stiff suspension is not very good on loose gravel, bumpy roads. Just look at a picture of an EVO VI compared to an EVO IX. Or even a Ver. V STi compared to today's STi. The EVO VI/Ver.5 STi both sit much higher and don't have the big 17" wheels because you didn't want 17" wheels with no sidewall on gravel.

@YelIowMamba Already did, the mustang 5.0 beat the EVO and the STI by quite a bit in Car and Drivers lightning lap with professional drivers so theres no excuse there. It didnt even come close to the GT500 and the 302 BOSS comes out soon and thats built for the track, much better handling, cornering, take off, and top speed than the 5.0.

In terms of power, of course the Mustang GT500 or 302 BOSS would outperform the EVO and STI at the track. But the power output of the EVO X alone is amazing for its class. Mitsubishi is planning on making the EVO XI by 2013, which will be electric hybrid diesel lol.

@CyberGTX09 In terms of power and track racing, the new GT has them beat as well, according to reviews and test drives. The EVO is a great car dont get me wrong, its highly engineered and thats why it costs so much for a 4 banger whereas the 5.0 with a 4v V8 is much cheaper, faster, comes with a whole range of interior comforts, and all its missing is Forced Induction. In terms of performance for dollar, the mustang has the evo beat, just wait for the 302 which is built for cars like the X

@ElxxChupacabra07 well we all know that mustang is not the 302 boss (which is one hell of a machine)... but that old mustang in the video would not be able to beat out the evo in a real lap with corners.

@AgentStyles Lol I own a Evo X. I've also driven several other sports cars. The turbo is actually very small. You must not know much about turbo cars or cars that are forced induction.

@labrados12345 a s/c mustang costs 35k lol what the hell are you talking about..well that particular S197 in the video might have been a 05 06 mustang GT so it isnt nearly 35k(unless it was a 2009 GT in which i still dont believe its that much)..they are in the 15-20k range with considerably LOW mileage 2 years ago(around the time you made the comment you did) and a whipple s/c cost about 6500(not including labor) so thats about the same price as you got your evo

Wow lol evo doesn't have nitrous it's called a TC car running rich=safe. Obviously has CF front fenders and an exhaust. def not stock clutch or it would have slipped more. Diff wheels and it's sitting lower so springs or coilovers one. Good job mustang! from an evo x owner

Kinda looked to me like the Evo had a little nitrous help. Lots of smoke coming outta the pipe.
