That’s an evo for you Yeah it’s Expensive and can be a headache at times But every time you drive it you’ll be smiling
Luke's reaction is what it would probably feel to 99% of the rest of us as well.

Luke did really well for going straight to a car with more power than a stock Aventador. I was driving my 80hp Civic last night and I thought that was pretty fun XD

My 135whp 8v mk3 jetta was the most fun car I’ve had. More so than my 373whp/389wtq mk7 gli 😅
Watching Luke enjoy as a novice is so great!! Put him on a track!!! So wholesome ❤
Luke is the best, love looking at the world through his fresh eyes, ( we all have been there at the start like him) More Luke content!!!!
We need more luke
I get a little too excited when I see a new G and G video

Thank you for putting Lucas in this video and letting him test drive the evo! His reactions and comments made my week!!
Trust me, Luke will be on track soon. Hope to see him on Gridlife with both Bens 💪🏼
The wide body fits the character of the car with 700hp imo

@@username8644 None if what you said matters. My point still stands. It's clearly not a track car. It's a fun weekend car that looks cool and is fun to drive
Watching from Kenya..Boost on that car is impressive. The commentary when on the wheel was awesome. I'm a subaru guy, but this was wholesome.
Hope y'all do a roadtrip with both of your Evo's. Maybe a "Racetrack specific Evo and a Weekend Evo Roadtrip"

Or with their sort of exchange cars. Mitsubishi Ben‘s Honda, and Honda Ben‘s Mitsubishi.
luke’s reactions were genuine, seems like a nice bloke to do more videos with!
You guys should do a ride along reaction video so people can feel the 700hp.
11:15 - "We are KZreadrs. We need to make good content" Then go on the longest road trip through USA and Canada or anywhere with this Evo with tall Ben's latest and greatest! It will be incredible to watch! I have finished watching all the road trip videos and I can't wait for more. Do something, champs!
1:35 the bone stock EG Civic thing is too relatable.
I liked Luke's bit the best. And those shots at the end... that sound is amazing.
You guys should do a Luke's driving expression compilation on the cars you guys built! 😀
The cinematography and editing is damn nice...good job
Really enjoyed this one guys. Fun review. And other people driving it gave us a sense for it as well
Watching Luke drive it was the best part 💯
Definitely agree about the steering wheel. Hate seeing a nice car then has a bad looking, out of place, no airbag aftermarket steering wheel.

Probably my least favourite thing I see car people do imo. If you go to the track and want a very specific sized wheel, sure, but for a street car, why sacrifice your safety? Especially when you can often switch wheels between cars of the same brand and still plug the airbag right in (i.e. S2000 wheel in Civics, various interchangeable Mazda wheels, etc). Also tons of aftermarket now that makes different wheel rims that can still bolt in the factory airbag.

@@username8644 unless you're going at very high speeds and are at high risk of a rollover, seatbelt and airbag is safer than a harness. To properly utilize a harness you need a helmet and Hanz device which you're not doing in a daily driver

@@username8644 debatable. Do they have a proper set-up with a rollcage/proper bars, and hans device? They gonna wear their racing helmet and hans device all the time? Otherwise, pray for their necks. Is all of the above going to be set-up properly and used properly every time? Seatbelts and airbags have countless $ and time spent on research and testing to work together, plus they are easier to get in and out of, something you'll be doing a lot in a street car.

Looking forward to this one.
Just want y'all to know, you got a new subscriber due to this vid. Will watch more! 😃 Edit: Luke's reaction was priceless, the joy of driving an Evo
The “bone stock EG Honda civic” comment compelled me to finally subscribe.
patiently awaits, "The Luke" series. nothing but pure excitement and joy.
This was a fun one!

@@username8644 true haha. I don’t even own a car, but the horsepower is just a numbe, it’s how you drive and use the car..
I do hate the wide body kit but the rest of the car is built pretty clean. It just makes the wheels look so tiny against those cartoon fenders and dare I say…cheap. Also, it’s really cool to see the evolution of car knowledge coming from all your track and build experience. Pushing reliability and doing things properly comes from years of seeing all the problems that janky mods can introduce. This is the way.
Luke is awesome. We need more of him! 😊
So awesome that you were able to have the Evo x drivable even with the 700hp that it has! Can't imagine what it must feel like driving it!
I like your channel more with every new video. Keep involving your cameraman onscreen he is a great addition. thanks boys.
holy hell that thing sounds amazing, especially those last 2k rpm my goodness
Makes me sad to have sold my evo X, but had to do it. Always Glad to see another person giggling and enjoying theirs!
Ben in the LAST video: "dont modify your car, it ruins it and makes it drive like garbage!" Ben THIS video: "This thing drives pretty stock, there isnt much drawback over a stock car. I dig it, no complaints!" 🤔
I used to have Varis tail lights for me Evo x. I loved them.
The car SOUNDS so good. My gosh 🥰
pristine content as always//
12:34 pure joy :)
Yooooooooo this made my day
Word of the day Jankily. I love it.
You would absolutely love the Mitsubishi Industries MHI18K TURBO. The perfect daily/ weekend track TURBO.
From what I remember you can increase turning radius by installing a lancer rally art steering rack to fix u turns however it wouldn't work with 295 tires on the front
Praise the Luke content
Nice to see both Ben's on screen at the same time again
we need a luke segment
Love the sound of the Exhaust! Miss the sound of my Evo 2.

I completely agree with Ben about it when people get rid of perfectly fine stock steering wheels for no reason. Like when I see an nrg wheel on an s2k, it just makes no sense to me. In addition, why would you get rid of your airbag purposefully without a cage and harnesses?
What is that magic in Mitsubishi that after 7 years are still aproach new content about their cars.
I can’t help but laugh at the sunglasses clip on the visor. I haven’t seen one of those in so long haha
I always think of a Volvo S60R when I see this car, and how much I would love to mod one of those to a similar spec. A race between the two could be really cool!
I love driving on that road. It's so much fun with all the curves.

In 1987 I had a Kawasaki 250 Ninja. My best friend went out of town and let me keep his Suzuki GSXR1100 for the weekend. A 87 250 Ninja is not a fast motorcycle. I wacked the throuttle open on the GSXR in 2nd gear and saw nothing but sky. By the time I got the front wheel down and switched to 3rd I was already going 120mph. Luke.....I see that same look of fear and excitement on your face. Time for that turbo Kswap in your Fit.
it sounds glorious. 🙏
I need someone in NY who can provide quality builds like this! 😢I wish these guys were near
You buy an Evo for the performance and driving feel. Great episode.
It’s ok Luke we love the Honda fit
Thumps up for letting Luke drive
Very cool car, wide body fits it well 👌
🔥🔥🔥
I really like Luke, would like to see him do his own ground-up build on the channel
Luke is the mannnnnnn
More Luke content ! and his fit
Give the people what they want… more Luke in front of the camera. Because it’s for the KZread channel and algorithm
*lol when Luke does that pull, it reminds me of Matt Maran.*
I love it. Evos is great
Luke make a great addition to the g&g team ✊
id like a go, since we are passing around the keys!
On dws's too thats awesome 👌
This is a pretty badass Evo, don’t understand why he was nitpicking so much. And the tail lights are sick
thats the best way to explain a good tune is that it feels so good that it feels like a video game feature
I like how its not insanely loud
Cars exterior is fire that guy tripping looks well modified
Devils backbone!
🔥
i actually like the exterior , only thing I would do different is a stock wing or no wing,
Be great to see it built similarly to the sti and be compared as the better modded daily
Man be focused
Those "smaller" rims with those fat tires, oooohhh myyy it looks so good
You guys should an episode driving each other's cars. Short Ben, Tall Ben, Luke and whoever works with you guys lol
Evo X don’t have the popularity of the previous gens but my god are they amazing cars. I made 620whp in my 08 X when I had it. One of the best most characterful cars I’ve ever owned. A demon in a straight line AND in the twisties. Absolutely bulletproof engines with proper maintenance. The only thing I hated about the car was the cheapo looking and feeling interior.
I would love to know where in VA is this road seems absolutely amazing!
Give us more Luke and Honda Fit content !
Add the intake mivec back , the exhaust can cause issues if the car has cams . Smaller turbo will work great new g series stuff is great so is the pulsar stuff
6:31 lmao, I miss my old evo x @ 400 ish could only imagine at 700+
I think it's walking under power because of the tire profile. The tires are a bit beefy. Going down to a 35 or 30 series should give the car a more planted/direct feel.
