Even if I had the money I would still take the EVO. Its way more practical, even though the GTR is very practical for a super car. And the rest of the money could be dumped into the EVO to make it go just as fast, and probably much faster, while having money left over. The EVO all so doesn't look like a shoe lol. The GTR isn't bad looking, but the EVO looks much better.
MrGovenator1 I agree with you guys. My buddies ask me what car I'd choose between these two and they're always surprised to hear me say I'd choose the Evo any day without hesitation!

I have to say I like the 2015 Mustang too. I like how it has more rounded surfaces, its not all just a bunch of straight lines. Every one is hating on it, and yet its going to sell like hot cakes.
+JazN N-Me You're damn right!!! The older 4wd is made to be quick and drives more like a rwd..the Xth 4wd seems to be made for safety similar to the Audi 4wd... almost boring!!! greets from Germany
I don't care about being the fastest on the roads, since your not suppose to drive like a nut and cause accidents anyway. The Evo is by far fast enough for me and is much better looking IMO. I'll take the Evo. Besides why would anyone compare a car that costs over 100k with a vehicle that costs over 30k. If the GT-R lost the race, that would be pretty pitiful.
I'd take the Evo over the GT-R, even though I love the GT-R, the Evo takes corners a bit quicker, and the 4b11 motor is just amazing allowing a two liter engine to hold 1000+hp without spinning all the way down the road
Whys everyone sitting here moaning about the price difference and 'oh its an evo why compare it to a gtr'. That's one of the evos biggest selling points. The fact that it can outperform many machines costing 2 or 3 times what it does is staggering

amapolishplummer Good luck with the confort in a GTR or EVO... lol It's quite ironic that you bashed the "regular" Evo in the other video, yet you are praising the harder and less practical FQ400
amapolishplummer you said "it would be a hard decision for me".... it would not, you would turn back and get a ford mondeo because you would be bleeding in pain after driving 2 miles. And these cars don't have LED's or fancy gizmos, is more about the driving, but you're more about the cruising, and having a big boot, etc
scrolex Jason Plato .is a Successful Touring car racing driver.Jeremy Clarkson is a motoring journalist .by his own admission his driving is aided by "Smoke & mirrors"
Plato is an awesome driver, but you shouldnt lift the throttle off the Evo in a corner as you would with a normal car, it disrupts the AYC. Keep the throttle in the corner, the car will send the power to the inside two wheels and will do wonders. I swear when you properly drive an Evo its breaking the laws of physics
From Wiki: The Nissan GT-R has electronics to control launch but the company does not use the term "launch control" since some owners have equated the term with turning off the stability control to launch the car, which may void the warranty of the drivetrain. The current version of Nissan GT-R allows user to launch the car by turning the Traction Control to "R" mode.
The Evo raped the GTR on the first test, it's just a case of each car in it's element. The Evo is better in the tight stuff and in poor conditions, and the GTR is faster on good tarmac when it can stretch it's legs. Yeah the GTR is only 8k pound more than the Evo, but maintenance cost are killer by comparison. Always interesting to compare, but really they are different animals. Both are really great cars :)
This is why I prefer Top Gear over Fifth Gear, mostly because TG admit they do useless consumers tests and advices, while being funny and FG maybe thinks they do good tests, but hey - they compare times measured by human stopwatch in 2 cars with 2 different drivers... C'mon... What are you testing there exactly?
The two racing drivers are about equal so the laps will be what the car is capable of on the limit.If you use a presenter who is not a racing driver he won't be able to lap at the limit so you never know what the car could do.Also racing drivers are able to reel off a succession of laps within about tenth of a second of the limit.
I agree with you if that was Alonso in one car and Vettel in another... But this - hey - they are not racing drivers at least not anymore, they are presenters. Two of them. You can see Tiff is struggling with reverse, and still they count that. That wasn't race track and surely not the race. It was just some random stopwatch s**t driving including cones. Nothing less nothing more... Really I see no point of this test...
under90seconds Jason Plato is still competing ,and winning in the British Touring Car Championship,he is a multiple champion who has won more BTCC races than anyone in history.Tiff Needell raced for many years in many different types of car including F1.I doubt if Alonso or Vettel would be any faster than these guys in a normal road car.
I didn't know about Plato winning multiple BTCC... Obviously they are good drivers, but each car should be given same conditions, for the test, that's what test is all about. Anyway you have your opinion and I respect that, so let's agree that we don't agree about this video :D
@0:38 Holy shit if the EVO had the power to back up those looks.... It looks so much better than the GT-R and the GT-R looks good to begin with, that's hard to beat.
I had choose Evo over the GTR. Spend the rest to upgrade it and it would be faster than the GTR and its also a off road car. Probably save some money as well. Evo can be upgraded to 3000 hp.
The problem with the Evo is that its a 4WD drivetrain in a FWD chassis. When you turn in, the chassis will predominately put more weight on the front, than in the back, essentially making the car continue to act like a FWD car in the corners.
wonderr An Evo is not something you want as a first car. The insurance is insane, the gas mileage is awful if you drive hard, plus, its a lot faster than most people can handle at the age when you first get your license. (16ish??) So, do what I did...get it as your SECOND car ;)
wonderr don't let people destroy your dreams, i always wanted a subaru sti (second plan was evo since i love rally) but after a few years i saved quite the money and finally purchased my dream car.
Cynical I get my license at 18 years old here in Finland and I probably wont get my first car any time soon, more like when I've got a job n stuff. But the Evo is pretty expensive, at least the newest one. But yeah I mean I was just thinking that wouldn't it be cool to have this as your first car.
wonderr Oh yeah, for sure it would be sweet as a first car, if you actually had the money and whatnot to pay for it. If you're serious about getting one, some of the older ones are pretty cheap, around the $10,000 mark for mid to late 90's here in Canada, not sure if they're that cheap in Finland. I'd recommend an 06' though. Probably the best year for the Evo, but those are double the price.
They dis Mitsubishi and put it on the track where obviously it will loose... put these two on even an off road drag race and Mitsubishi will win because it's lighter and designed aerodynamically for rally racing, two different leagues, both amazing. weird comparison.
GTR is the real supercar, able to take down cars like M5, 911 and R8 for less money (at least initially). Lancer Evolution is just a insanely souped up economy regular sedan, usually costing less than half the price of GTR. Anything it can do that come close to the GTR is amazing. Thats why Lan Evo is amazing car. The super great underdog. Too bad, we will likely never heard the likes of it again.
Seramics Well the GTR is still 100k... And when it comes to GTRs you want to buy new dont you? Or is that jsut me not willing to buy a used GTR? But an M5 from a few years ago with 500+hp you can get for just 15k. :\ My point was it was kind of silly to put the M5 on the list as its cheaper by quite a bit and doesnt have too much similar stats.
Nissan doesn't have a "rally" car. They have a sports car (370Z) and the supercar (GT-R). Comparing the 2 is just silly. And lets not get started with the actual tests. If you can't get Reverse engaged, do another run.
Evo would be more fuel efficient and has 4 doors and more room inside so it'd make a better daily. GTR is faster and cooler but is no where near as practical.
+kobyashi I can guarantee the evo will not be more fuel efficient. They struggle to get above 20mpg. That's what you get when you have 400bhp from a 2l engine. They also need a service every 4000 miles or so
I like how people throw out hp numbers likes it give aways hahaha. 1000 hp easily blah blah blah. Nissan is the better platform, you pay for it. Evo is below it and it's cheaper. That's about it.
Used to have an fq400 great car, fast as hell. But I grow out of it, looked very boy racer-inspired. Also, the fuel costs were ridiculous. If I went back thou I wouldn't change a thing.
Yes, during power over steering, the GT-R will line up with its huge throttle steer capability and the ATTESA. It won't send over 50% to front wheel therefore less under steer, higher steering response makes it more precise and much linear as he mentioned. Also yes, it's amazing that the Nissan cost just $8,000 more but way faster than EVO. To be honest, EVO can't match GTR even back to 90's with 280 hp of power regulation let alone dealing with a GT-R with higher power to weight ratio. The GT-R doesn't need huge amount of power to dust its rival on back straight but if it does, its rivals are pretty much dead. Well done Nissan.
The fq400 is limited edition so in the future it will cost more and get an fq440 against the gtr and see what that is like I love both cars and been in both so I'm not one sided
WKD GAMING i been in the Final edition as well but still love the GT-R, the FQ400 may have a closer run with GTR but we all know sheer power isn't enough for a GTR
It sad to watch them blame the evo on their mistakes, i have owned a evo X fq400 and it was very hard to get it to understeer if you knew how to drive it
lol stock gtr beats a done up evo..... if the gtr was done up it would be around 1k hp (i said around) it would have smoked that thing love both cars but put a turbo thats not stock into the gtr then see what happens! :)
Agustin Guglielmone Really? Supercar? Can you point me in the direction of other supercars that have a 3.8L V6 engine? A supercar that was like 80HP ahead of the Evo.
oh, you are right, sorry... now I know that the GTR is a deportive car too. I said that because most GTRs are tuned-up to compete with supercars, but I was wrong!
The evos traction control was on..that fq400 can roast a slide better than the gtr and if you disable the traction control on the evo it WILL SEND MORE TO THE REAR IN TARMAC MODE I can tell just by how they drive and lack of burnt rubber. Just saying it really is obvious and puts the test at a slight bias
Both great cars and would happily take either if they were given to me, out of my own pocket though i'd take the evo base version and spend the money i saved on upgrades plus it's nice to have 4 doors.
Joetatoe Productions Thats not the point. But i dont know what mods you would do to that gtr, dont know what are the key components to make more power on it. It would be faster, but i dont know the cost of those parts.
its all about preference here in states a gtr is 90k a evo is 35k and if i put another 55k into an evo it would destroy that gt and being honest id only need to put about 30k into it to destroy that gtr even the new one. thats still 25k cheaper than a bone stock gtr. so like i said its about ur angle and ur preff.
Robert Powell The GT-R is in a different category. I would never spend 35k (let an additional 25k!) on a 4 cylinder "sports"car. The GT-R is "cheap" for its capabilities.
The Nissan GTR is a track car whereas the Evo is a rally car the GTR is obviously gonna win on any asphalt surface but if this was a race on snow or dirt the Evo would wipe the floor with GTR. This is a very unfair comparison.
Haris Gr The whole point of the japanese car is to be able to change/swap out parts. Even if the evo is a street car it can easily be changed into what it was meant to be in the first place, a RALLY CAR.
Razvan J gtr may not be the best out there but it will still compete with cars in a much higher price range. That's what makes the gtr so special. It's the sleeper of the supercar world. People might not want to pay 200,00 + for a gt3 when they can get ssimilar performance from something that's nearly half the price.
+Razvan J I actually lost brain cells trying to piece together the responses you just wrote. Like, I've babysit 8 year olds who put together a better paragraph then you. You're arguing about something you clearly know nothing about. 😂 That's all, have a good day!
+Laurynas S. maybe. But have you seen the paint job on the Evo? There is a massive color difference between the front bumper and the hood. You don't get that kind of crappy quality even on cheap chinese cars...
yah5o I don't see any massive color difference also whats the point painting whole car and bumper in different colors in the end it might cost even more for manufacturer then painting everything in one color. Btw Nissan is not know for their built quality either, its about in the same level as Mitsubishi.
Being from America, the pounds me laugh! Like damn that's a heavy evo! 60,000 pound GTR. How the hell are they even fast with all that weight!? (Yes I know what they mean)
Only reason the GTR lost that 1st round was coz the driver didnt launch control (dunno why) and he didnt use the flappy paddles (again, I dunno why) the GTR will monster the evo in a drag race and on a track
I love both cars now you can argue upgrades but then both should have it then the gtr would win again but then affordability goes the the evo so it's almost a tie
I'm a Subaru guy, but I can't deny evos have more potential if you want to get a 10second drag car, I really hope they update the sti motor. Hope it's 350hp and a 2.0L that be mint

If you're serious about getting one, some of the older ones are pretty cheap, around the $10,000 mark for mid to late 90's here in Canada, not sure if they're that cheap in Finland. I'd recommend an 06' though. Probably the best year for the Evo, but those are double the price.
***** Lol go for it
Evo Forever
no offense i love evo drivers but you would have a evo over a GTR?
+Jotveer Khangura Is different, Evo is simply awesome, not is the most powerful, but is awesome, 4 times winner rallies.
+Jotveer Khangura evo :)
+RockerPunk idk i would have a GTR over a evo cause its a freaking GTR
Is nice, the two cars
The EVO is not only built for the track but its built for offroad as well (if u wanna know why just look at their rally history)
They dis Mitsubishi and put it on the track where obviously it will loose... put these two on even an off road drag race and Mitsubishi will win because it's lighter and designed aerodynamically for rally racing, two different leagues, both amazing. weird comparison.
GTR is the real supercar, able to take down cars like M5, 911 and R8 for less money (at least initially). Lancer Evolution is just a insanely souped up economy regular sedan, usually costing less than half the price of GTR. Anything it can do that come close to the GTR is amazing. Thats why Lan Evo is amazing car. The super great underdog. Too bad, we will likely never heard the likes of it again.
+Seramics Wait..."able to take down cars like M5, 911 and R8 for less money" Well the M5 is less money... lol
MadFluffyster Xaines you sure now? maybe GTR has inflated massively in recent times.....
Seramics Or it hasnt but the M5 has...
MadFluffyster Xaines so what do u mean, M5 got more expensive or cheaper?
Seramics Well the GTR is still 100k... And when it comes to GTRs you want to buy new dont you? Or is that jsut me not willing to buy a used GTR?
But an M5 from a few years ago with 500+hp you can get for just 15k. :\
My point was it was kind of silly to put the M5 on the list as its cheaper by quite a bit and doesnt have too much similar stats.
Remembering that the Evos are generally used for Rally, where the GTR is a Drifter.
this
I would by the EVO because it is one of the rarest cars...
come to Dubai u will find many and even in very low price 2k usd
@@fahdk-SA 2k? holy shit these cars arent sold for under 20k here in sweden .
GTR is a track car whereas the EVO is a rally car. Hard to compare the two. Performance for dollar EVO obviously wins.
+Simon Christian for 8k pounds difference, as he said, I dont think so.
i think they using stock market cars if they got the rally evo to run that test its should do the job that's what i think.
love this comparison!! cool video!! the GT-R is truly in a league of its own!!
Thats because it is in a different league. Poor comparison tbh
And now they're under the same ownership 😳
Can't wait for the Evo reboot with GTR internals.
I know that a Stock Evo would never beat a stock GTR, however I really like the evo.
2:16 - 2:18
Awesome !
Azeem Qadir llkkkii
sooo beautifull i know
My favorite part of the whole video. It’s so beautiful. Idk who the driver is but he did a good job.
I had a FQ400 , sold it ( big mistake )
I now have 2017 GTR . GTR is obviously faster , but the EVO was more fun
The Two Future Classics. The GTR and The EVO.
let just appreciate how good they both are at driving
Nissan doesn't have a "rally" car. They have a sports car (370Z) and the supercar (GT-R). Comparing the 2 is just silly. And lets not get started with the actual tests. If you can't get Reverse engaged, do another run.
+Boris Terekidi bro gtr is not a supercar
not a supercar? LOOL what is it lacking to be a supercar, then? because every website puts it in the supercar categoty.
well its not classed as an exotic, it cant be placed in the same category as lambo and ferraris
@@b0zay Yes it can and is.
I was lucky to own both cars at the same time.I used them alternatively,for work.Both great fun. 👍 👍
Well, in Canada that's not a fair game the EVO is 51k while the GTR is 118k not quite in the same category.
Dude clearly don’t know how to drive, Evo one of the best handling cars I’ve ever driven
Evo would be more fuel efficient and has 4 doors and more room inside so it'd make a better daily.
GTR is faster and cooler but is no where near as practical.
+kobyashi because people buy sports cars to be practical...
+kobyashi I can guarantee the evo will not be more fuel efficient. They struggle to get above 20mpg. That's what you get when you have 400bhp from a 2l engine. They also need a service every 4000 miles or so
Well said sir.
I like how people throw out hp numbers likes it give aways hahaha. 1000 hp easily blah blah blah.
Nissan is the better platform, you pay for it. Evo is below it and it's cheaper. That's about it.
Used to have an fq400 great car, fast as hell.
But I grow out of it, looked very boy racer-inspired.
Also, the fuel costs were ridiculous.
If I went back thou I wouldn't change a thing.
People in the comments section need to stop comparing a rally sedan to a street bound coupe, just appreciate greatness from the both
Yes, during power over steering, the GT-R will line up with its huge throttle steer capability and the ATTESA. It won't send over 50% to front wheel therefore less under steer, higher steering response makes it more precise and much linear as he mentioned. Also yes, it's amazing that the Nissan cost just $8,000 more but way faster than EVO. To be honest, EVO can't match GTR even back to 90's with 280 hp of power regulation let alone dealing with a GT-R with higher power to weight ratio. The GT-R doesn't need huge amount of power to dust its rival on back straight but if it does, its rivals are pretty much dead. Well done Nissan.
The fq400 is limited edition so in the future it will cost more and get an fq440 against the gtr and see what that is like I love both cars and been in both so I'm not one sided
WKD GAMING i been in the Final edition as well but still love the GT-R, the FQ400 may have a closer run with GTR but we all know sheer power isn't enough for a GTR
Oh man it's hard watching this video because I love both of these beauties.
The GTR is on a completely different planet of performance
ikr 4cyl turbo vs a 6 cyl turbo is not fair by any means especially on a race course LOL . and the dumb ass said he is disappointed smh
How is it only $8000 more? Here in NZ a FQ400 would be around $60,000 while a GTR is more like $160,000
in nz it would be 100k nzd , 90000 aud / 74000usd / 52000 pounds
Clown Centralia remember these were the early version of these cars
Both great cars. However this comparison is like comparing point-to-point race between a bicycle and a Veyron in a Tokyo heavily congested street.
man.... the new GTR's are a crazy improvement on these old ones...
It sad to watch them blame the evo on their mistakes, i have owned a evo X fq400 and it was very hard to get it to understeer if you knew how to drive it
wish i had that evo
i don 't her fuck man!!!!
Why there wasn't launch control on gtr ? Is that some sort of budget model ?
Its the older model with under 500bhp (episode is 2+ years old)
Vedang P is that y there is an actual stick shift instead of paddle shifters?
Bel Pires He has paddle shifters. That GTR is an automatic with paddles
i didnt see them, i saw a stick at one point, thats y i asked.
3:42
What a driver Tiff is!
The only thing that would make this cool is if they were battling on ebisu circuit or something. Go to japan and test them on track!
Ones a Manual and ones a Dual clutch with shifts measured in milliseconds. A fairer comparison would have been FQ-440
san, ni, "itchy", Go!
LMAO, I know it's just a count down in Japanese, but his pronouncation kills me.
lol stock gtr beats a done up evo..... if the gtr was done up it would be around 1k hp (i said around) it would have smoked that thing love both cars but put a turbo thats not stock into the gtr then see what happens! :)
The evo isn't "done up", it comes from the factory like that in the fq-400 form
But the Evo is a deportive car, the GTR is a SUPERCAR, it's normal that the GTR won
Agustin Guglielmone Really? Supercar? Can you point me in the direction of other supercars that have a 3.8L V6 engine? A supercar that was like 80HP ahead of the Evo.
oh, you are right, sorry... now I know that the GTR is a deportive car too. I said that because most GTRs are tuned-up to compete with supercars, but I was wrong!
That's a stock Evo...
Yet still, i purchased the evo. Zero regrets. 😊
I'd get the evo, at least it's still a true manual, btw paddle shifter is not a manual, it's still a automatic
Both are lovely cars (:
god id love to have a evo!
How come all Evo Xs more powerful than the FQ330 specification were 5 speed manual only?
that EVO got balls, you can't say it didn't hold it's own agains Gojira! c'mon son!
The evos traction control was on..that fq400 can roast a slide better than the gtr and if you disable the traction control on the evo it WILL SEND MORE TO THE REAR IN TARMAC MODE I can tell just by how they drive and lack of burnt rubber. Just saying it really is obvious and puts the test at a slight bias
Both great cars and would happily take either if they were given to me, out of my own pocket though i'd take the evo base version and spend the money i saved on upgrades plus it's nice to have 4 doors.
who says the gtr is a boring, self driven car? look at that thing oversteer and 4wd drift like a boss!
With 8 thousand quid spent on improving the evo, it would outperform the gtr...
Turbo built engine transmission and u would still have lots of money
And what about 8 thousand spent on the GTR too?
Joetatoe Productions Thats not the point. But i dont know what mods you would do to that gtr, dont know what are the key components to make more power on it. It would be faster, but i dont know the cost of those parts.
+Joetatoe Productions you spent that money buying the car lmao
2:15 great turning back!
As far as vague and down right SHOCKINGLY inaccurate test go this one is surely KING
4 cylinder.... really? The GT-R has an awesome engine sound and can easily get tuned to 900HP (where the real fun starts).
its all about preference here in states a gtr is 90k a evo is 35k and if i put another 55k into an evo it would destroy that gt and being honest id only need to put about 30k into it to destroy that gtr even the new one. thats still 25k cheaper than a bone stock gtr. so like i said its about ur angle and ur preff.
Robert Powell The GT-R is in a different category. I would never spend 35k (let an additional 25k!) on a 4 cylinder "sports"car. The GT-R is "cheap" for its capabilities.
true
***** you can tune the GT-R to 2000 HP actually. Look up AMS tuned GT-R.
Dylan Sanderson I know
The Nissan GTR is a track car whereas the Evo is a rally car the GTR is obviously gonna win on any asphalt surface but if this was a race on snow or dirt the Evo would wipe the floor with GTR. This is a very unfair comparison.
+James Postle I'd be seriously curious as to what result a race in the wet would give.
Haris Gr The whole point of the japanese car is to be able to change/swap out parts. Even if the evo is a street car it can easily be changed into what it was meant to be in the first place, a RALLY CAR.
Razvan J gtr may not be the best out there but it will still compete with cars in a much higher price range. That's what makes the gtr so special. It's the sleeper of the supercar world. People might not want to pay 200,00 + for a gt3 when they can get ssimilar performance from something that's nearly half the price.
Razvan J ok fine whatever.
+Razvan J I actually lost brain cells trying to piece together the responses you just wrote. Like, I've babysit 8 year olds who put together a better paragraph then you. You're arguing about something you clearly know nothing about. 😂 That's all, have a good day!
GtR is my dream car.. one day I'll buy it!
R34 is cooler ;)
Jay NJ I like both
yeah if you rob a couple of banks . then you're dream will come true
I guessed right..r u Indian?
humbleyet ankhi No and what does that have to do with my comment ??!!?
Nissan owns the mitsubishi now..hope they reproduce evos again with evos uniqueness and Nissan's power..😍
He mistaken while changing direction, the EVO explode around corners, but this was badly anyway.
Evo looks waaaay better than GTR.
+Laurynas S. IMO the gtr looks better but they are both great cars.
+Laurynas S. except the fact that you look no different than the cheap 20k Mitsubishi Lancer -_- !
+Laurynas S. maybe. But have you seen the paint job on the Evo? There is a massive color difference between the front bumper and the hood. You don't get that kind of crappy quality even on cheap chinese cars...
yah5o I don't see any massive color difference also whats the point painting whole car and bumper in different colors in the end it might cost even more for manufacturer then painting everything in one color. Btw Nissan is not know for their built quality either, its about in the same level as Mitsubishi.
+Jack Hobbs well this is awkward
shit comparison of two different cars...i'll still be saving up for my EVO ;)
Being from America, the pounds me laugh! Like damn that's a heavy evo! 60,000 pound GTR. How the hell are they even fast with all that weight!? (Yes I know what they mean)
Thats price not weight lol
@@predaxgamer6396 I know. Lol
EVO's are meant for RALLY and maybe (1/4 and 1/2 Race) thats how short gears help em with power
Finally bought a Nissan GTR R35, took a bloody long time though
If I had the money I would be an Evo X mr and spend on it to get 400 plus hp and on its handling.
The Evo X FQ 400 looks completely evil
It looks sick
Wow just £8000 difference? Fuck me, I'll have 2.
Only reason the GTR lost that 1st round was coz the driver didnt launch control (dunno why) and he didnt use the flappy paddles (again, I dunno why) the GTR will monster the evo in a drag race and on a track
Evo 4 cylinders
Vs
GTR 6 cylinder
Evo got it in the bag
there is a definite driver skill difference.
love evo! rly good design.
now let them race in a rally race
I love both cars now you can argue upgrades but then both should have it then the gtr would win again but then affordability goes the the evo so it's almost a tie
I'm a Subaru guy, but I can't deny evos have more potential if you want to get a 10second drag car, I really hope they update the sti motor. Hope it's 350hp and a 2.0L that be mint
