Exclamation My Mitsubishi EVO will keep up with your Lamborghini Murcielago...
In the hands of a better driver, I'm sure the EVO would beat it...

It's just not a lamborghini though is it. And that is EXACTLY what it's about. It's not a thoroughbred.

LOL. No, which is EXACTLY what it's about.

As someone who can't afford a Lambo, there's some great inverse snobbery value about a Japanese 4 door that can keep up with an italian supercar, and carry a guitar and amp in the boot whilst it's doing it.

A guy I know has a Japanese saloon (the other one) that runs rings around Lambos and Ferraris, Nurburg Rings that is He likes the fact that it looks like a family car but has 600bhp and 4wd.

Evo's are great cars, they are reliable, handle fantastically, good price and I love Japanese rockets.

Pretty amazing.
I have a friends who's son had an earlier EVO and he ended up rolling it 8 times in a crash.
Him and his buddy walked away from it.
My friend said it was scary fast.

Truth be told, I don't have an EVO and the Lambo (along with any other supercar) is a work of art...I did find the video very interesting, however...
