When tested by Travis (I think) the Evo MR with SST rated a 73 on the Jalop scale. It's interesting that the CLA45 AMG rates lower... It has a $15k premium over the Evo and a nicer interior but I'm not sure I could justify the difference in price without increasing size and going into something at least C class sized.

Fuck me, that's about 30 minutes from my house... I've rented from Enterprise here before and suggest family rents from them when they are in town - I will never rent from Enterprise again.

It looks like a god damned PT Cruiser. Argh, Mini you anger me. The JCW is such a fun car (though way overpriced) and you attempt to round out your portfolio with this crap? This is platform engineering at its worst, reminds me of the crap that GM and Ford were doing... Take a decent car, butcher it into 4 different…

What the serious fuck. That was all sorts of wrong.

Different venue so I'm not sure you can really compare. Different elevations etc.

Yes, because MotorWeek. MotorWeek is the Jalop God of the Interweb - did you not know this?

The Yellowbird vid is absolutely terrifying. My god that would have required about 8 different pairs of boxers for me to complete.

It is awesome to see Jalopnik reporting on this.

Not quite true...

I am legitimately angry right now...

Fucking stellar. I am so damn proud to be Canadian today. That was slow as all hell, the trucks look ridiculous on the road, a god damn kid is competing, and yet I want to watch it every day.

She now has a toe thumb. Her and Megan Fox can do to thumb commercials together.

I like it - but $250k for what is essentially a mash up of a few cars and a big V8 seems a little gnarly. They're competing in a pretty prestigious price range.

I don't normally frequent Jezebel. Not because I'm afraid of what is hiding in the pages here but because the time I spend online is spent looking at world news, junk on Gawker and being on car forums.

Just fired up the old TV Set and low and behold - Speed is still rocking up here in Canada land. I've got Pinks coming up in a bit, there's NASCAR on right now, still same old same old!

Hah, definitely not. Hell they can't write half the time either...

Yes - do explain...

Exactly - that was the sound of me dreading the dentist - not the sound of 43 EV's ripping around a track.

I was about 5 or 6 - my dad got me the Quasar Hotweels...

The supposedly had 40 miles on the freshly built motor - that is the problem with a full boost tune on E85.
