I would much rather have the GT but...
Might we keep in mind the 900hp evo does it with something like 2 liters and the GT makes 1000hp with 5.4?

Well lets see the driveability of the EVO compared to the GT. The evo is a dyno queen and would be a wierd drive around a track...mainly because of the massive turbo lag.
And I think the EVO has a greater chance of breaking...it's still a DSM after all.

Heh. The Escudo had retardedly bad lag, and it still manages to hold it's place in the annals of fricken evil cars...
But it kinda cheats with its two engines...

Aside from the obvious factor of drivability that was previously posted, I would also like to point out that the 5.4L in the GT is still on stock internals. The AMS EVO is running a motor that has been built from the ground up to make ridiculous power numbers down.

You really think that car is cheaper in the long run than the GT....when is the last time you put together an engine to drop that kind of HP...out of 4-cylinders?
People suck.
Rev it till it MELTS.....
