I don't know which I'd rather have. I think stock vs stock I'd prefer the Evo but modded I'd go with the Z cuz you really don't see a whole lot of tuned Z's outside of magazines.

I dunno bout that statement, you can mod the hell out of an evo and prolly do more performance wise. Not knocking potential of the Z, hmmmm in high hp figures the 4wd would surpass 2wd.

Here is my little review:
First, both cars are fun cars to drive. I miss the turbo power the Evo had & the AWD. Although the Z is still a quick car, I think I need to get to lower altitude to really feel all its hp. I'm sure the AWD will be better up here in the winter time as well. I planned on buying a cheap 2nd/beater car for the winter anyhow, if I owned the Evo or 350Z. I don't miss always wondering what is going to break next on the Evo. I had numorous problems with it. I'm not saying that all Evo's are this way, but mine was. I love all the features I have with the Z that the Evo didn't had, IE; 1. CRUISE CONTROL!!! My right foot is so thankful for cruise. I am liking the leather seating and after the snow/cold weather we had a couple weeks ago, the heated seats. The Bose stereo could be nicer but I can deal with it right now. The Evo's Recaro held you in nicer but I don't plan on doing much autoxing/racing in the Z. I've always though the Z was a much nicer/sexier looking car than the Evo. I don't miss the large wing in the rearview but the Z rear window is so small I can bearly see anything far behind me. I do love the onboard computer that comes with the Z and the oil pressure and volt gauges.
Overall I think I'm much happier with the Z than the Evo. Everytime I think about or asked about the pluses and minuses the only thing I miss from the Evo is its power. I'm glad to be back into a sports coupe. Just my 2 cents.

I love any and all Z cars, but I'm not sure if I would go from an Evo to one.... :lol:

But of course, when a car has major technical issues, changes are inevitable....

Keep us updated on the progress..... :thumbs up

TISO: I am on EvoM as well and it is a copy & paste.
I would've like the G35 but it was a $$$ issue.
I'm not sure I'm going to boost it. At least not any time soon.

Congrat, z is better looking in everyway possible IMHO once u get out of the "tuner" stage then u realize that the evo is not a god as many take it as, just my 2 cents
