Its lightyears ahead of the m3 on grip and in the twisties, although thats possibly due to cheap tyres on the m3.

Its standard and still considerably faster than the m3 once on boost.

In standard guise the m3 sounds and looks better.

Prefer the evos seats but the m3 is a far nicer place to be..

Ergh, please explain how a car with less bhp and more transmission loss is faster than an M3?

Basic stuff here

Nice car nevertheless, I would like one eventually

I'm assuming all these direct comparisons to the M3 in first person is just another little bit to add to the John / Taylorboosh being the same person thing?!

Not been on here properly for a while so didn't have a clue about an Evo being bought!

Also the plate is shite . It's not worth a toss . It's asking to be stopped and fined. I don't know how people can find a plate like this to be remotly good . Even worse it has to be illegally spaced to still look like a really shit number plate

It would be a good plate imo if your Evo was "porn". Its just a factory standard car so i don't really see the appeal.

Also, why does it sit so high at the front compared to the rear?? That picture dosn't look to be on a hill like the last 1s, yet it still looks pretty reverse rakey.

Im not really sure but yea the front does sit a tad higher, maybe it has differant springs on front? Doesnt really matter as it will be on coilovers and rotas by christmas anyway, just got a few bits and bobs more pressing...

And yea not exactly suiting at the minute but will be once ive had a few months to play with it...

Give it up Graham, John's got an Evo now so they're better than M3s, K?
