I'm not saying the Evo is the better car as a whole, I'm simply stating my personal opinion. I love both cars for their strengths and weaknesses. "Variety is the spice of life". I'm glad we all don't drive the same car. The OP should drive both and form his own opinion.
He will realize Evo>Sti all day EVERYDAY!

A stock Evo is the least of my worries lol. I'm lookin to pick on vettes!
like i said though, for flat out horsepower numbers I would have gone with the Evo. I4's will always be easier to make huge numbers out of when compared to a boxer.
Who knows?
Dude come on... Vettes?A stock Evo is the least of my worries lol. I'm lookin to pick on vettes!

Vettes are for old farts.
You should be going up against like bikes and Modded Evos/Stis in your HP range.

lol you ever stepped up to a C6Z06? they're not exactly slow! but yes, i will be hunting bikes and similarly set up evos and sti's as well.Dude come on... Vettes?

There's no thrill in that. It's more fun owning some V8 lover with something half the size with 4 doors.Dude come on... Vettes?

Properly said especially from an H4 owner. The EVO makes crazy power and there are TONS of parts out there. Easier and cheaper to work on then the STi.

damn alot to consider
I didn't see anyone answering this question for you.
The RS is a NA 2.5. It's the slowest Impreza. From 2002-2005 the WRX has a 2.0 turbo. From 2006-present the WRX has a 2.5 turbo. The TR is just a WRX without some of the creature comforts. If I were in the market for a WRX, I'd go with an 06+ model. The turbo 2.5 turns into a torque monster with a little tuning.
Of course, the STi is superior to all of the WRXs. It's a much better starting point if you're looking to mod. When all is said and done, my top choice between any Impreza or Lancer would be a 2005 STI (obviously I'm biased in the EVO/STI debate)
thank you. !!I didn't see anyone answering this question for you.

I think the best advice that has been given in this thread, multiple times I might add, is that you should spend a considerable amount of time in both cars in order to come to your own conclusion...Both cars are similar in so many respects and vastly different in others..The decision also lies in what you're trying to get out of whatever car you purchase...I love STI's so that would be MY choice.
One more time, what are you going to do with it?
bump from the dead, seriously ready fundwise to get one of these, please i still need additonal help
interior wise i always thought that with the exception of the oem recaro's, the evo interior felt like i was sitting in a $10k car. it just felt like a lancer with recaro's.
the sti interior just felt and looked a ton "nicer" to me if you could get past the blue colors.
in the end the subaru maintenance is not hard, just abit more complicated for certain things (plugs/ injectors) but not a breaking point to sway one way or another.
i loooove evo's, i love the response, i love the seats, i love the super easy power, however i bought a subaru
house of turbo subarus...its all we'll drive
i think i saw you yesterday turning out from plaza on lawrenceville/suwanee with hooters/staples/starbucks/shogun
if it is that soobie, it was fire!! made me sway towards soobie, but the blue interior :sigh:
You have to keep any mind that the '03-05 Evo came with the black/blue Recaro interior. You can always get one that has the SSL package that includes all black leather, sunroof and an infinity sound system. The '06 model came with black leather seats with suede inserts (best looking interior out of the Evos, IMO).
Many people have mentioned that you need to drive one to get a feel as to which one you like better. Have you done this yet? If not, get on it. Don't base your decision off other people's opinions. What may work for them, may not for you. Don't just drive one of each, drive multiple. Test drive at a dealership and see if you can keep it over-night to get a good feel of the car. Find an STi at a dealership will be easier than an Evo.
i have test drove an Sti but when i went to try an evo they wanted me to get prices and all that b4 i could even test drive an evo, was pretty weird, like how was i gonna start dealing prices if you dont evn let me drive it. it was odd
i HATE when stealerships do that shit! and they will never leave u alone. its almost more of a pain in the ass to even step into one
Yep that was me going to the gym.
There's something intoxicating about subarus in general that make you want another. There's a reason that Subaru has one he highest owner loyalties and return buyers out of all Japanese brands. I have 2 now and am considering a 3rd as a DD. And it doesn't even need to be turboed for me.
Its very much the same as Jeep and Corvette owners where it feels like a worldwide community of Subaru owners.

I've always loved the Sti. If you want better overall quality, it's the hands down choice. The evo just cannot compete in that field. But from owning DSM's the raw potential of the 4g63 is hard to ignore.
I was in this same situation not long ago, but I went with an Infiniti G35 instead. It isn't as fast as both of those, but bitches love it.
They see me trollinnnnn
and that's all that matters hahaha
lol @ you for thinking you know something i don't.
Who knows?
Put a audi s4 on the list pleae
I check sluts off my list like a maintnence man
I drive a low is3 just so it gives me a reason to drive super slow on these rough ga roads.
Well you have to see it from their perspective. They probably have every kid wanting to take a joy ride in the car with no intentions of buying it so they want to see how serious you are and whether you even qualify to finance it. It also has a lot to do with the way you present yourself. Be mature and respectful. Research the car before you go up there and once they see that you know what you're talking about then they will take you more serious. Don't immediately ask to take it on a test drive either.
if ur goin for power id go with an evo. it just seems easier to make power with them. BUT u cant go wrong with STI's either, just everyone that iv know that has/had one had over heating problems. just go drive both and see which u like better
over heating is not a common issue in WRX or STI, unless corners are cut modding the car. Mine never over heated even when i went with bigger turbo and had stock WRX coolling stystem. My thermostat gave up once and that was about it.
as a WRX owner, I say get the Evo.

He still hasn't answered what has been asked a couple times already...
What are your intentions with the car? Will it be used simply for daily driving? Will you do any track events with it? If so, 1/4, road course, auto-x?
If you are looking to get close to STI performance out of a WRX, buy a STI not a WRX. You'll spend butt loads more on WRX to bring it to STI level. STI's lot more refined than base line WRX and EVO 8 and 9, lot more comfy. STI/WRX are oversteer/tail happy. Subaru community is one of the greatest out there. They hold their value very well. STI's have great over all fit and feel to them. STI's are basically bullet proff off the line, given owner takes care of the car.
Want to go fast for half the price of STI Mods and get cheap parts & support, buy a EVO. Can't beat amount of parts, and tunning assistance for it. EVO's are based on FWD so they tend to understeer compared to STI. Compared to STI, evo feels like go cart, very quick responsing steering. Inside it feels cheap to me compared to a STI, no competition. Evos are known to have transfer case problem, even in stock form. At the same time you can pick up a EVO good 3-4 grand cheaper than a STI. And that 3-4 grand can go long way in a EVO.
Buying for daily and power when needed!
how do u make those pics of ur car or where can i find them. i wanna do one for my lude
