goddamn 33k? The Evo when it first came out was marked up to the 33grand or so. Now they can be found to like 27 to 29 used. I still think the STi is better.

damn a .98 on the skid pad, thats awesome. But I would sitll rather have a RX-7 FD, they pull .99 and are the most beautiful ever made. Who cares if you have to get a new engine every 70,000 miles. They are so awesome. GO ROTARY.

I know on planes those things are on the wings to prevent turbulence... In a car that is supposedly properly engineered to be damn fast, they make perfect sense to me.

i think i'd take a Lancer over an STI even if the lancer had 50 less horsepower than it does. Now it has a 6-speed a bigger turbo and 300 pounds lighter

I've always wanted an EVO over an Impreza WRX or STI for that matter. Even the "underpowered" 271hp one can easily be at 300awhp with some intake/exhaust work.

4G63....MMMM

read somewhere that the RS has a package that comes with radio, ac and power accessories... but no wing sunroof, leather..

i've still yet to test drive the evo and sti. alot of review has indicated that the evo is more nimbler than the sti
