EVO all day....i think you get more bang for the buck...its faster out the box....motor handles alot more...sti's are known for piston slap after like 400whp your in the danger zone...evo's are like 400? i want 5 lol without any issues of course tuned and moded right...but ya EVo all day .!!!
I have owned my 05' sti for 4 years now and i am still on the fence with this one. I love my sti but have contemplated many times selling it and getting an evo 8 or 9.
A few reasons i've considered are because i just like how mean they look and they can make great power with fewer dollars spent than an sti. I see wrx's/sti's all day long compared to the few evo's i see on the road a month. Faster steering, better seats and stronger block. Also easier to work on.
Reasons for holding me back are that i found my sti bone stock and it was not beat on at all. Finding an evo 8 or 9 like that now is somewhat of a challenge. I've put way too much money into my sti now to sell it and buy a car that is so similar. Maybe one day:dunno:
454 of you are traitors! Just saying. Btw go drive a evo X today and then test drive the sti and you'll see subaru has nothing on mitsubishi right now.
STi for me. I prefer the look and the sound. The Evo just looks and sounds too ricey/boy racerish. The STi does have the huge wing, but thats easily fixed and then the car looks fine.
All take an EVO all day. Most importantly bc all my friends have wrx and sti and are always talkin smack about "we got Evo eaters haha" losers!! I would own them in that evo
