Oh, I had a few of my friends take me down a few pegs at the last auto show. We were walking around looking at various cars that interested us and I couldn't stop going on about how much I loved the new Z06 and the Evo IX. They commented that there was more to cars than the performance and finally made me admit that a 20000 dollar Civic Si had a better interior than the Z06, and that the Evo, ignoring the sport seats, the steering wheel, the shift knob and the few other touches, was a 13,000 dollar Lancer inside and that cars like the Sti were worlds better in that respect. I had to concede the point, not that it diminishes my love for the cars one iota.

not gonna argue with you on that. The Evo has less appointments than my 95 240sx had, and its at least on par with the S2000. But i like my cars basic, less things to break or to distract you from what the car is made for - driving!

+1 I didnt buy this car to be my race car I bought to be my fun daily driver and I want comfort when I am driving daily, I have my other car for all out racing. Why wouldnt I want some luxury in my daily car?
