Came down to the 5.0 was cheaper then the EVO X and gave Ford dealer better price for my G8 then the Chevy dealer and Mitsu. was going to.
Yeah i've heard ford gives some good deals. And I really don't think the evo X is worth the money. Aren't they pushing less HP then the older ones?

Stock they are more. I do not know to many people pushing them above 450whp though. Least right now.

Oh they are also heavier.

Nice kill, lol.

An Evo X can make power just as easily (to a point, we haven't seen 1000+awhp X's yet), but it will always weigh a bit more. It's a more solid, more refined car with more safety equipment and more options.

The X is a better DD, the older Evos were better for racing.
