Thumbs up Late night Lancer

I was dropping off my friend at her house last night and a car came up from behind me. I have never seen the headlights before and had this deep exhaust tone to it. It passed me up and I shouted, "EVO!" No one in the car believed me. I felt it approaching and has this certain ora to it. My friend with the WRX did not believe so I had to catch up to(in my rental Corolla, my car is in the shop). We caught up to it and all I could say is, "WRX killer". Dont get me wrong, but the new STi is going to do much in the world because it cannot compete in the 2.0L circuit anymore around the world. In the USA maybe, but are they making the 2.0 L turbo STi everywhere else in the world?
WRX killa. What would you do in a stock car running at 18 psi? The in really quick, it has more uuhhh to it than when you see a Michelago. I saw one this morning, its not to appealing(Guy in my neighborhood and he has a Diablo too). Just my thoughts.

2.5L (EJ25) will be for US market, most every else will be the same old EJ20. I think WRC requires 2L or less to compete, but I'm not sure.
