I won the interwebz years ago- y'all are fighting over my scraps.

Lunch time is coming soon, I wonder whether an Evo or an SS can get me to Chik Fil-A faster?

Well if the chik fil-A is a straight line away from you with no traffic or corners the SS. But if the .... wait a minute.

The Evo is just a hoped up jap crap ricer economobile. It would be going to the rice shack not Chick Fil-A!!!

trick question...

I think there were actually 2 runs. 1 was a pre prod car and the other was a prod car. If you notice, the Autoblog was in 2008 while the Jalopnik is 2009.

That listing of the EVO and STI going around the ring at like 8:10 and 8:11, I don't think those were american market cars. I think the EVO was a FQ360, and the STI is a version also not availible to us here in the states. Not really a good comparo....

Would be nice if we got the different FQ's here. There price reflects there performance however.
