Depending on where you get your info the Evo should do it in 6 secs, but I have seen it written up at 5.7, which I do believe!!
So, a BIG supercharger then??

Our 0 to 60 is same as a Porsche Boxter but not sure what that is exactly
Its has been verified by a Boxter owner I took for a drive in mine though lol

Yeah, I don't doubt that. I also know which I'd rather own!
Anyway, I'm going to give Lorne a shotty of mine when he's up next week in the hope that spurs him towards an Evo...

Do you reckon the Boxster is as 'economical' as our Evo's??  |

a small tip with 0-60 and auto box's. foot on foot brake, box in drive and revs at about 1200. this will give you a good set off speed, not much more revs though as this will eventually (possibly soon) damage the box. use the box manually unless tiptronic, starting in 1st and work it up thru 2nd to drive when the revs are right. power setting on, o/d off. with revs much higher on hold awaiting start, you run the risk of wheel spin which will of course make ya time worse. incidentally, i used to work for an auto box reconditioner, who used to build racing auto boxes, now thats a thought for the evo  Mike |

Did indeed have a play with Alans VX last week - but since it was minus 7 or similar was limited to what I could do with it ... super slidey time!
It makes an inhuman noise and goes like stink... and the mad fool is moving south just shortly so Im on his case to come along on the 20th Jan to get it dirty!

Yes, he is in my case... I will begin making excuses about inexperience and crappy tyres now. ;-) A |
