Actually, we used to have one on the farm, but it fell apart. Then we go a VW based buggy, in which I learnt heaps about...drifting

mmm.... another 8 vs. Zed thread again.. ;-p
i think 98% of the current RX8 buyers have thought about getting the Zed when purchasing.... same here... i picked the 8 because
- unique design (both engineering and appearance wise)
- newest jap "luxo" performance car on the market
- doesnt look like the car i have just traded in
- 8 looks better/more sleek than the Zed
- useable backseats and "boot"
- "zoom zoom" sounded better than "shift the future"....
/the full comp insurance quotes was almost similar for both cars
/also look at the CV8, but "realised" it is just a commowhore with 2 less doors...
/i'd be a more difficult decision if the EVO8 was on the market....

Mind you, the new X looks like it will be a tastier package, in more ways than one
. We're looking at 2008 though I think.

Alternatively, you have given the lie to that old adage 'it takes one to know one'.

EVOVIII wasnt available back in Nov/Dec 2003, let along an EVOIV
EVOX sounds good, but im sure EVOVI would be better

Wonder how many EvoIX's Mitsubishi are selling now that you can buy local. I remember heaps of people bitching about not being able to buy an Evo locally - wonder if they've put their money where their mouth is?
