Plus, Manufacturers Championships are won by reliability, not speed. Winning 3 Manufacturers Titles does not indicate a fast car, it indicates cars that don't break down and/or drivers that don't crash into stuff... or just lots of cars on the grid.

Also, this is a silly debate. The GD chassis is a better platform, you're just bitching because it's ugly. If the bugeye didn't have the crappy headlights, you'd be just a bigger fan of the '02 than the '01... it's a better chassis with more power and better suspension! If that stuff isn't important to you, why did you ditch the RS for an EVO? The RS is 10 times better looking than the EVO.
Looks like it's time to declare a winner.
