    yeah to damn round...
    that is what i dont like about the sti's...too round.
    the evos have a more aggressive look...

    ill more than likely just get an evo 8 cause of cost and what i want out of it...
    no need to pay 35k for an evo 9...
    i just want around 450 be quick and drive it...and the 4 doors would be nice!

    blah, evoX will be a piece of shit with a sport shift tranny. If it takes Chrysler, Mitsubishi, hyundai and some other company to design 1 car you know that none of their R&D teams are good enough to create a car worth having.

    The evo 8 has the nasty cheese wedge in the front bumper. The 9 RS is where its at.

    The 9 is a great car. I have wanted an Evo since the 8. The 9 would be for me worth waiting for to get what I want.

    Get the 7. It's the lightest and fastest. It has the ACD and the AYC = more power to the ground and better handling. The ACD started in the USDM Evos in, I think '05. The only thing is, the 7 doesn't have OBD II, so if you live in a county that requires emissions, it might be difficult. However, if you can figure a way around that, the money is better spent. I may know of someone who can pull one into the country, if you are interested. PM me if you are, and I will give you his contact info.

    This is just my opinion. As far as price ...if you are limited on that than I would say stick with Evo8. I was at the time so thats why I have an 8 and still loving it. Good luck.

    Id say go for the following in this order.. Top being most wanted on my list to the bottom. Again this is just IMO with my . So take a look but in the end go with what makes you happy bro.
    RHD Evo 7
    Evo9 MR
    Evo9 SE
    Evo9
    Evo8 MR
    Evo8
    Evo X
    Evo9 RS

    look man, koffebean on here ran 12.5 in his evo 9 RS with just a DP and catback.

    be smart, get a evo 9 RS, put a CD player in it and automatic windows

    then do turboback exhaust, flashed ECU and a manual boost controller. with thoose 5 things u will have the comfort of a non RS evo spending thousands of dollars less and be able to walk 90% of whats on the road then take it to the track if u want a run VERY low 12's.

    i wouldnt get the MR cause the price differance isnt justified for what u get in my opinion. with the MR u get leather seats. but the thing is u can buy a RS and put auto windows in it, a CD player and a wing on it and save ALOT of money, i have 2 friends that have done that. the MR also has HID's where the RS doesnt but u can get some of thoose also. what u wont have is the leather seats and u wont have a 6speed, but the mitsu 5 speed tranny is better than their 6 speed tranny anyways.

    so yeah the MR is "better" but u can make the RS just as good and save like 5 thousand dollars. trust me i have seen to good friends do it, its not hard at all.

    I might know where you can get a 7, but if you have to deal with emissions, that might be a problem. PM me if you are interested.

    if your goals are 450-500 then youll need a bigger turbo. If your gonna stay on stock turbo just get a 9. But dont get the mr's because the trannys arent as strong as the 5 speeds. If you have lots of questions just pm me or something.

    yeah they have the same power but the MR has the 6speed, which isnt a good thing, like what wickedmrxi said.

    5spd>6spd

    if ur gonna stay stock turbo and are looking for like 350-375whp get 9, if u want more ur gonna have to upgrade turbo and do cams so just go ahead and get an 8 cause really the only differance is a slightly bigger exhaust side on the turbo and the cams in the 9, but if ur gonna be replacing the cams and turbo why pay more for a 9 when u can get a 8 and use the money u saved to make power.

    Wrong. The hotside of a 05 evo 8 is the same hotside as the 06 evo 9. The difference is the compressor housing. Also the 9 has mivec. Also the mr's and rs's have lsd.
