I couldn't buy the previous number of Evo :x but I can't miss this one.
My favorite car won the part II :D 599GTB is the king !!! :P Surprisingly they didn't crash the LP640!! :roflmao: :niet: In the part I there are a lot of surprises for me: Cayman in 9th place and behind the Z4 Coupe :shock: ; Clio sport in 8th place :roll: Thanks a lot !! |
Thanks a million dude!
Where i live we get EVO magazine one month behind so i won't be getting this for a while and i wanted it so bad :D Cheers |
Im continuosly amazed at how the American sports cars from Chevy and Ford have been doing lately. They seem to love thier long term Mustang despite its flaws, a Ford GT won thier last ECOTY, and the Corvette Z06, which costs $60,000 here in the states (less then a well equiped Cayman S and only a wink above a standard Cayman) got 4th place behind only the mega hyper cars that cost three times more!!!! Simply amazing to me. And even more amazing, the Z06 can hang with them around the track. Its nice to know that I can buy a genuine supercar performance for the price of a BMW M-3 or Cayman and all I have to give up on is a nice interior and the brand!!!!
I also loved the 997 Gt3 and 599. Im personally not a fan of GT cars but I can see why the 599 won. It takes the GT to a whole new level. Personally, however, I was gunning for the Porsche to win :) I am an avid reader of Evo here in the states and, like 5.7V10, I have to sit around for the Evo to be shipped accross the pond and am always about a month behind the UK for it. Thanks! |
I will also still be buying a copy b/c I believe in supporting such a great magazine. They way I figure it, the more American buy Evo, the more likely Car and Driver, Road and Track, etc will wake up and start improving thier mag quality!!! hehe.

Nice to see the 599 up there, that car has seriously grown on me. 620BHP in a gt car, brilliant. I think i'd take one over the 430
|
thx for these 8)
I'll be going to bed happier :lol: |

is it me or is there a page missing page between 106 and 109?
Thanks for the scans nonetheless. |
thanks so much!!! i can't wait to get a copy as well! i think the 599 GTB is very deserving. didn't they give the 550 Maranello the car of the decade award before? the 599 might take it this time :D
|
thanks a lot!
|
Thanks for the scans, ecoty is always a great read.
|
Thanks a lot for these scans. It will be a nice bed time read :P
Could you also upload page 17 (part 1, p. 107 or 108 in the magazine)? |
For some reason, it takes AGES to load some of the pages. Fantastic read, though, and im not surprised the ferrari took the crown. :D

I read this whole article (actually the whole issue) on my way home from England last wednesday, it was the first EVO I ever read cover to cover and I have to say I love the mag. |
It be another 1-2months till I get a copy of this, thanx for the scans!!!
Im glad the Ferrari beat the 997, I just couldnt handle another Porsche winner :p Id still take the LP640 over the 599 but atleast this proves the other magazines werent off the mark :) |

Plenty of surprises in this test though, notably the low scoring for the Cayman behind both the Z4 coupe and 335i (and the Mini GP). The XKR acquitted itself quite well, nice to see a Jaguar placing that high. Curious comments about the Z06's gearchange as well. Most previous tests have complained that it's poor; maybe it just needed some time to loosen up. Thanks for the scans, moguai. |
Interesting. The 599 was pretty much expected, I think. It's a very refined automobile, which I think is the overall impression you get with Cars of the Year.
|
gonna read it now
|
Thanks heaps for the scans! Cheers :good: :good:
|
I immediately got dissapointed when i saw no RS4, am i in the right?
|
what about the 997 turbo isnt it from this year too ? im sure it would be a great contender to the title

There are actually a few pages missing from the scans, there is no ads, so all the pages missing are from the article.
EVO staff talk about what cars are missing and why, like the cayenne turbo S and 997tt. <-any year that has a new gt3 delivered, it will outshine the rest, and so on. Well maybe this year they would have needed GT3rs to make the opposition look bad, since the enemies delivered mightier punch, sad was also the part, that not everyone had a chance to feel the magic of the gt3, since tyre went flat and they did not get it fixed soon enough. And if the LP640 had been as trouble free as the car in fast fleet, i think it would have been mightier contender. Well read the story and you will get the idea:) |
So the 599 has to be a truly amazing car as expected. Canīt wait to hear JCs opinion about it in the new series. Thanks for this load of scans mate :wink:
|
GodDAMNIT I feel like an idiot because I bought the copy lol!
Well, thanks moguai for the scans. I'll always make sure to check on JW for scans before I go out and spend 4 quid on a damn magazine :P |
