He bought it last night. I figured I'd post these videos up here. That car is amazing. It is comparable to the new Genesis coupe V6 but it's turbo, 4 door and all wheel drive.

Depends on the Evo to me. I like the new ones a lot. Otherwise Id take the coupe.

So is this Evo8 or what DTN?

^^ Yes, it's a Mitsubishi Lancer Evoloution 8

The Evo has a 2.0T and is AWD. While the 2.0T coupe, produces slightly less power, and is heavier, I would say that the lighter drivetrain with a V6 at 306hp would whoop on the evo at 270hp, straight line of course.
