Hot Take
The Evo 2 was better.

My second car was a W201 190E 2.3L.
Was a great car.

Any manual mercedes is rare as hens teeth. I wish their cars were easier to manual swap but the autos are so short the transmission humps are all weird. Plus some engines like the OM617 balance the crank together with the flywheel.

That's not a hot take, that's a fact.

I'm partial to the Evo 8 myself.

(Pic is a 9, which is the better car; I just think the 8 is the most iconic look)

Nah, evo V was the best aesthetically, closely followed by IV (shame about the shit ass crank walk)

(It's because 'evo' was almost always a synecdoche for lancers, that's the joke anon-kun)

I disagree but not strongly enough to argue about it, since it's close either way. I just really like that triangular styling detail on the front fascia.

>He actually likes the Boulay face
Worsened the drag coefficient and cooling, just so the grille would kinda-sorta look like Mt Fuji.

Worsened the coefficient of drag and the cooling, just so the grille would kinda-sorta look like Mt Fuji.

All true.
You know how some rally cars colour the rungs in front mud catchers to create a silhouette of their logos?
I feel like something like that could be possible to give the same vibe without compromising performance.
Some badges like Mercedes serendipitously have logos that are easy to integrate into grilles as is.
