CR has a comical review history, but they don't rate cars by outright
performance. Motortrend rated the BMW 135i better than the Evo X, but
at least they admitted that the Evo handled far better and was more of
a sports car. They just felt the 135i was more livable (if you keep it
out of snow and rain!) as a daily driver. And I agree with that.

blue, a white and two red.
I'm expecting a call tomorrow.

If you can't afford a decent sports car, and not many of us can, an Evo X
will allow you to pretend.


Ummmmm I don't want to spend enormous amounts on a piece for mobile
furniture like an 'Aston'.

BTW, I now own one of these

A true classic sports car
