Honestly.. i like them both.
It would be a very difficult decision for me.
350 has the looks and the exotic type of feel about it. Pretty good performance for the price. New technology.
EVO has a sunroof,all-wheel drive, and incredible driving fun factor.And Proven Performance. Plus i'm a huge WRC fan. (even though Mitsubishi isnt in WRC this year)
Yeah WRC rocks, Those are buy far the best drivers in the World hands down.

u cant say the skylign will beat a TT Z06 no way it has more potinal being a v8 also its looks hell of alot better. If u are looking for that square look why dont u jsut drop TT Z06 corvette motor in my volvo. Also i bet skyline wont ever keep up in corvette in road racing/track race. AWD sucks in road racing....unless u have more hp then u know what to do with. which skyline doenst have avaible because of turbo lag...

The G35 Sport coupe is built off a Skyline frame. Also I pick the 350Z for the reason of the new supercharger. The Evo. is pretty much maxed out as far as performance goes. Also the 350Z looks much sleeker comapred to the Evo. but the Evo. does look pretty bad ass.

U dam well kno SKYLINE can whip any import and domestic ass anyday! SKYLINE ALL THE WAY. And No G35 is not concidered a SKYLINE cause its not wearing the GTR badge.
My point was, dipshit, that the Cobra has one of the highest performance to price ratios of any car on the market today. Damn near 400hp and 400ftlbs of torque for 35-38 grand? That's why it owns the STi. It looks a lot better too.

I would have to say the 350Z...it has much more of a "cool factor" than the Evo, IMO.

And I've always been Z biased.

At least the new EVO looks better than the POS Lancer that came out here last year.
