Hmm... if there was an even better EVO? I dont know yet, I'll have to see it. I'm just a fan of Subaru AWD. I really respect Mitsubishi however, and would happily drive either vehicle.

STi... simply because mitsu is voiding warranties and subie is giving out autocross memberships.

I believe the Evo is already a work by Ralliart. Oh well, I'm more inclined to say the Evo, because it is extremely great and a well balanced machine. Although, if it were a drag race car or something someone would tune A LOT more, the STi is a great choice becuase it has much more power and the ability to be an all out supercar.

Even though I love STi's, I hear they are worked on pretty often too, and I believe parts are more too? Correct me if I'm wrong. EVO's are unreliable as well, and... well if you want something reliable, keep your Vic

STI!

That Evo MR or whatever is pretty sweet though too. It's hard to decide because I'd rather have either one over my Civic, lol.

I know that the evo is slitely faster but i'd still go with a subaru over the evo. The evo's a little too small and wussy looking.

The first time that I took a ride with an evo, I fell in love with it. Not to mention the fact that everytime that both cars had been compared in car and driver, the Evo is always the winner. I can't stand the hood scope on the sti even though it has a practical purpose. If I had the money, the sti would be left at the dealership and the evo would be parked in my driveway.

Either car is good, each one has their pros and cons, but I'm a bit biased towards Subaru. I like the engineering of their awd better than the Mitsu awd. Also like the boxer engine design, geartrains and not to mention reliability. Oh and also I have a SWRT baseball cap signed by Petter Solberg two months before becoming world champion.
