Good Lord!
I knew that the Evo was cheap, but I didn't realise that
it was that cheap.

Is it true that the top speed is only 165 mph? If so, why do
you think that it could compete, in terms of speed, with a DB9?

Where can you do even 165MPH?

Maybe during his driving lessons?



Yes indeed it can outperform the Aston.
Sort of like the all round race boat compared to the downhill sled.


Donal's not going to get it. Ever.



Unambitious is not wanting people to stare at your car when you park
it?


Donal obviously believes a car's price is more important that it's
abilities. My buddy has a modded AWD 911 that cost more than a DB9. He
just bought an Evo X and will track the car and also use it for runs
to the yard. He agrees that the Evo is in the same class of handling
as the 911 turbo. The DB9 is a dinosaur by comparison. Come to think
of it he also owns a original Elise...another car that's more
rewarding to drive than a Db9. But how do you explain to a person like
Donal about handling and balance?
