Our tires suck, the stupid things donīt even match the wheels, they should have been 265īs (I think). What the fudge subaru? Iīll bet anyone that with the same set of tires (and a no bias driver), the STI would win heads down.
Arriba el STI,
EVO es de Jotos

looks like opposite results of last years models
the sti is now faster on a straightaway
while the evo is faster on the track

well ya win some you lose some. Still love my suby though. I looked at the evo IX and just could not talk myself into it. Nice car but interior was poor on fit and finish and just felt cheap. But the price mark up was deffinetly not cheap. I will have to look at the X and see how much they changed. Stlll dont think I would buy one though just because I love that boxer rumble haha

this two look really competitive. I was checking the edmunds review and the STI did a 13.3 and the EVO a 13.6@ 101.... dont know what the STI trapped, but it was 1.5mph over the Mustang Shelby GT...105.5? who knows.

I guess the deciding factor will be the price tag.

When some lose some???? The STi has ALWAYS been no. 2 in the evo v. sti comparisons. The super AWD control of the evo is superior.
