I can agree that Honda makes nothing fun, realistically, but Z's are pretty damn fun cars. So are G37's. As for Mitsu, they're a bit of a debacle.
The GT-R I have a healthy amount of respect for, but it's not a car for the masses. I like the Z; it's nice for what it is, but it's a big V6 pony like the Mustang, not a nimble 4cyl like the Silvia.

The Evo is not so much "boring" as too sedany. It and the WRX are soooo close and yet just can't make that leap. They want to be sporty, but there's those extra doors, saying "but, but, but, I have kids, my wife won't let me buy a two door". Imagine, if you will, the Evo. Take it and shorten it, remove the rear doors, and reduce the size of the rear seats into a 2+2 configuration, or remove them entirely. When I look at those cars I always see what they could have been.

With a little FI help, the BRZ will be that car.
