I'm thinking of selling my s2000 and go for Sti or Evo

[upstatescevo]

he has a nice s2000 and if you just want to autox they are good cars but if u want to go fast just get an evo i have been going to atlanta dragway for awhile and no offense but i havent even seen an sti break 12's and i run low 12's high 11's for about $1500 oh yeah and i have an 8 you can get a 9 now for about 25k or you can get an rs for about the same price and run 12's all stock

[ueyedgr8tness]

So like in my case i am not not sure what the next whip will be but if i wanted a evo i would get a evo8 just cause they run a little cheaper and ppl or willing to drop the price a little because of the new models,and on top of that i would have money to put it into the shop as soon as i got it ...VS... me going and getting a new 1 dropping 30k+ and struggle to mod it,so why buy a car u can't go all out with it as soon as u get it when the reason u got it was to go fast?

Man you sound defensive. Like I said there are a lot of people on here like that. That wasn't saying you were one of them. I sold my evo because of bigger and better things, I want to do. I bought that car, and went straight and dropped 8k into it. I just sold my cobra, and I am looking to buy a Porsche or a GTR. So many people put themselves in debt messing with cars they can't afford, to try and be cool. Fact is still that most on here can't afford the car they own now.

[ueyedgr8tness]

I feel u man i have been there before.but never lost as much $ as i have in a freaking srt4 i got.should of went and got a a evo but didint like the insurance payment 380 a month for what!! I said damn let me get married 1st so the insurance will drop.

[ueyedgr8tness]

The struggle part thoe i no what he means by that it sux.I guess thats why i try to be a little smarter every time i get a new whip cause i have been in that paycheck to paycheck bs before and its a slow route to moding my old whips i had.

[upstatescevo]

i pay 93 a month on my evo for full cov. and im 23

[ueyedgr8tness]

i pay 93 a month on my evo for full cov. and im 23

[DUBSf22c]

[upstatescevo]

[ueyedgr8tness]

So is the insurance fully in your name? cause the state trooper has nothing to do with insurance.

[upstatescevo]

yeah and the state tropper gets me out of the tickets but i dont get many ive only had 1 in my evo and 2 in my gst

[ueyedgr8tness]

yeah and the state tropper gets me out of the tickets but i dont get many ive only had 1 in my evo and 2 in my gst

So its fully in your name no 1 else on the policy and your paying 96$ a month wow that is crazy.

[b16ftw]

sti ftmfw!

[kfzemx3]

you must be extremely old cause i pay 93 a month for my camry with full coverage, 250/deduct, roadside and all the extra ****, and i have no accidents or tickets and i turn 26 in jan

[upstatescevo]

no im 23 its not that bad i have a 1000 dollar deduct and all the extra stuff i have a buddy who is 24 and he pays the same thing for his evo every month and he has a 250 deduct

[upstatescevo]

it started out bad when i first got my gst and it was the first time i was the only person on my insurance and it was 201 a month when i was 19

[upstatescevo]

the lady at my insurance company said there was not a really big difference in my insurance on my evo or a regular lancer

[kfzemx3]

well then consider yourself lucky lol cause they want 183 from me for the same setup i have now for my is300 that i'm buying hopefully next week

though i really cant complain cause when i was with progressive i was paying 117 a month for my mx3 and that was liability only and a 500 dollar deductable lol i got screwed big time with them

[upstatescevo]

well maybe its the area i live in a small town in south carolina

[kfzemx3]

yea thats probably got something to do with it, i live inside the atlanta perimeter and the way the idiots down here drive WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[Maniac1]

Alot of people in this thread, have no clue what they're talking about.

Both cars, are great! Go out and test drive them, get a good feel on both and really pay attention to their power and handling abilities. Like I said before, these two cars are very close to each other stock.

Im not a fanboy like some people in this thread. :p but instead of saying go with this or that, do some research, and go from there. I personally haven't run into any other problems than my tranny, and thats because I have a Wrx. You wouldn't have to worry about that with an STi. But me, with only 15-1600 dollars in mods, im alot faster than some other Evo's and STi's running around.

An 07 STi has alot more potential than the previous years, cause of it's longer gears and other small upgrades in it's motor. I have friends with Evo's, yes they're quick, but man, they're like roaches. Everywhere you look you see an Evo, lol I wouldn't like to see a car that I have twice or three times a day.

But thats just me

[DUBSf22c]

STi---- better residual (sp?) value, stronger driveline and very good trannys in the 07
EVO 9- responds amazing to mods- easy to mod - look great too.

STi sticks to the tracks more
EVO seems to becoming a 1320 beast

I wish i could have both a sti and a evo honeslty.. but that aint gunna happen

[upstatescevo]

I wish i could have both a sti and a evo honeslty.. but that aint gunna happen

yeah that would be great

to own an evo you have to know i would say a good bit about cars or your gonna pay out the ass in maintence and getting it modded. But if you a decent mecahnic you should be alright. I do everything on my car oil changes,clutch,cams,all fluids all of my mods were done by me thats how i can afford mine and do the mods i want

TO TS: WATCH THIS VIDEO... AND ITS THE 2.0 JAP STI TOO!

[afwfjustin]

Turbo your S. They are more of an underdog and when you can spank an evo or sti in the blink of an eye it's more fun

[iRyuk]

I highly recommend you go with an Evo. I too test drove the STI and Evo before coming up with my decision.

The Subaru had some very nice torque feel to it but the handling wasn't really what I was particularly looking for.

When I test drove the Evolution I fell in love with it within acouple minutes of driving it. So I bought myself an Evo aweek later.

Don't get me wrong, the Impreza is a great car too. My sense of driving and feel just felt better in the Evo than the STI.

Either way keep us updated.

[3.5altman]

that blue evo is hott

[atlxpat]

evo 16g is bigger than the vf39




and this is an evo IX next to an evo VIII


VF39's from what I hear are very prone to cracking. vf34's are usually the way to go with wrx's, i'm thinking of moving up to an evo 16g or if i want to kill myself, an 18g

[silvers2k]

Awww dang.... i cant believe youre going to retire the s2k and get into something totally different.

[TehHakingS14]

evos are teh shizel!!! reeeeee!

[Bruce Leroy]

wtf,,,


Do people just not read post dates???

[Just_CHill]

wtf,,,


Do people just not read post dates???

x2

Lol, good times. I wonder if he got the STI or the Evo...........

[osiriskidd]

its all preference. whatever makes you happy in the long run.

i wouldn't mind either xD

[seanrg1116]

in almost every aspect the two cars are the same; all wheel drive turbo monsters. If you look at the highlights from road and track comparisions and top gear you will see that they all think they are brothers from another mother . BUT the evo has one huge thing going for it that the subie does not and that is a motor that has been in production for what almost 18-19 years so that should tell you which one will last longer. There was an issue of sport compact car thats cover story was 1000 horsepower evo and all 4 of the 5 cars that passed the test were street cars. The most powerful street subie can only pray for 700-800 wheel HP. so i say go with the EVO. But the subies boxer engine sounds cool as sh*t.
