Um, nope.
Some one could have posted something like this. I never looked for any thing else. Just saw the movie last night and thought this would be funny.
Posted the same thing on ******* you might be thinking that?

I'd feel pretty horrible. The Evo is a ricer's wet dream. Despite the close performance of both, the STi/STI is the "upper crust," or the "classier" of the two, if you will.

I doubt the Evo crowd is enthusiastic to have that pile of crap in that pile of crap movie. It's like the Mustang with the Nissan motor. They've managed to insult both sets of fans (domestic and import) with one car.

Yeah, really! Maybe I'll throw an EJ25 into my '94 Camaro. Or maybe the LT1 from my Camaro into my STi.

Get a Porsche 914, and a Cavalier motor would be an improvement; power-wise, anyway.

I seen a 914 with a WRX motor in it, which is pretty cool.

i was going more for the sarcastic effect and thinking more along the lines of a porsche 911 with a cavalier engine. yeah you could put just about anything in a 914 and make it faster, its a good car to work with
