Consumer report dont mean crap, thats only one time test and review, you need to deal and feel it day by day. i could careless what a review says when real life is another story. you cant compared a Mitsubishi Evolution to any actual Mazda in the market, the Mitsubishi engines takes and makes more power than any Mazda engine out there, lots more parts, better and stronger engines. I mean I have a 400whp+ Mazdaspeed Protg with a GT3582R turbo, and with the same amount of money i have put into these car near 25k, will probably by now own a near 700-900whp Evolution, I mean I love my car dude and most likely will never change it for an evo at these point, but iam realistic Mitsubishis Evos, and not to mention their Japanese line up cars like the FTO etc are better and make more power than any Mazda. dont get mad the truth have only one way
