That is truly amazing. 0-62 in 3.6!!! That is incredible.

Quite apart from that, it's a little unfair to say the Evo is "quicker" than the Pagani, because above 60 the Pagani would leave the Evo in the dust.

Thats amazing. 400hp doesn't seem like it would be enough to make an EVO beat an Zonda but wow.

Mmmm.. 200HP per liter.

I guess I'd take this Evo, I could look at it and drool if it breaks down

That article is a pile of sh**t. Yes, the EVO is faster from 0-60. Why? Umm...hello, AWD may have something to do with it. This article was simply meant to sell magazines. To say the EVO is faster than the Zonda with no ifs, ands, or buts is simply lying. The EVO isn't faster than the EVO from 0-100, 0-150, 0-200. I doubt it's faster around a track either, but who knows about that. I had more respect for the British mags

as they say, you can make a pile of shit fast, but at the end of the day, it is still a pile of shit. Now an EVO isn't a pile of shit, per se, but as cars go, well, it got hit by the truck that delivers ugly sticks.

That is impressive, but how many Zondas do you see driving around?

Evo

Zonda

It's more than how fast you are. Otherwise we would all trade in our S2000 for used F-bodies.

FYI, there are a ton of Evos here in the US with a lot more than 400 bhp (more like 400 whp) that could put that MR in the shade. A couple of Evo tuners got cars into the 3.2 sec 0-60 range when tested by Sport Compact Car (who are not partial or water down their numbers).

I agree the Evo isn't the sexiest car to everyone, but it certainly grows on you. I completely agree about the F-body comment.
