144.93 mph e-revo??

No, there not. All that Jap stuff is. :p

Think of it this way. $70k in a Lancer is like spending $200k on a Vette. It is EASY to get 800+ hp out of a Vette. You have to remember, Chevy has to keep the Vette reasonable powered or insurance would make it almost impossible for most to get one. Not to mention, and you said it yourself, a sedan and a sports car are way different. It's like comparing apples and oranges. 2 seater vs. 4, awd vs. rwd, v6 vs. v8. Besides, what kinda moron would spend 70k on a Lancer?? Comparing a car with 3x its initial cost in hoppups to a car that is bone stock isn't fair. I could spend $70k on a Tahoe and have it beat a Corvette, but nobody in there right mind would do it...
