I think the Evo is a great car overall. The Recaro seats are comfortable. Ive taken 3 hour road trips straight and have been comfortable the whole time. Gas milege isnt too bad. I drive local about 15 miles round trip to work and fill up every other week.
Now of course interior quality isnt like the audi or infiniti and has its rattles but there is no denying the performance. The engine and fun factor more than make up for that. I rather have a car that would suck my ass back into the seat then one that will massage it and keep it warm.
The other cars are great choices as well and I did look at the audi and infiniti before the Evo but what won me to the Evo is the raw performance and tunability.
