Yeah, keep the evo. I have an 04 mustang and my gf has a 99 eclipse gsx with mods and around 250awhp. Her car is TONS more fun to drive than the mustang, although I do love driving the mustang. Next we are swapping out the turbo for a 16g with bigger injectors, safc, and a front mount intercooler. Should be around 300awhp at that point.
Evo will handle better than both, will look better than both (imo), will be MUCH less frequent on the road. It weighs less and has AWD, both of which make a big difference in performance.
I vote keep the EVO hands down!

^^^^ big 16g evo3 turbo ftw!!!!! Did it on my talon.
Keep the evo 4g63 is a monster if you build it right and awd is unbeatable.

i wish i had e85 near me, a friend of mine was making 400hp with a stock turbo on e85
First of all, I don't mean to sound like a dick with what I am about to say........But sometimes the logic on this forum is kinda "fucked up"! Like Evan said this is a Mustang forum not a import or GM, most of the time the choices are going to lean toward Ford or Mustangs. Just the way it is. You would'nt go to a Mormon prayer chat room and ask for directions on how to "butt-****" a gerbel would you?
3.8, whatever you decide to buy will be your decision and yours only. I personally will be happy for you as long as you are happy with whatever you purchased. I think the world of all the people on this forum but I would not let anyone on here help me buy a car that I have to make payments on for the 5 years.
Ask yourself these questions about the cars, is it for the speed, is it for the ride, is it for the handling or the looks? First of all, I can gurantee you will never be the fastest. There will always be someone out there just a little faster. All new cars will run fast enough to get you a reckless driving ticket and all the new cars will run fast enough to get you killed. Is it the looks, they make thousands of these cars a years. I have an 02 Dark Mineral Gray, Ford made 29,000 of this car in 02 so its not a rare car,or worth big money. I believe you make your car "rare" in what you do to it how it makes you feels when you drive it. If you you don't have this feeling then its just another "cookie-cutter."
Have you ever thought about doing a 180 and look into buying an older version of a Camaro or Mustang. If you pay 40k for a new car you maybe able to buy a restored car for about the same price.
All I'm trying to say is shop smart and make 3.8 for the win happy not the Mustangboards. Good Luck

The new Mustang looks awesome but of your choices I would keep the Evo. I like the styling of the new Camaro but I wouldn't consider it since the new Mustang beats it in every performance aspect and it is still more expensive. In the end just get what will make you happy.

the evo X is awesome they are a little heavier but they ride very night and you dont feel every crack in the road, the 4b11 is a very good engine and responds very well to mods, are you looking for an MR or GSR?
