Thinkin about sellin my sxt and gettin a STI

[rolling_trip]

It rides smoother then the STI.

Got to agree with you there, the seats are much easlier to ride in, in the Evo. Dang, i never noticed that the MR(same power?) was the only one to come with a six speed, like the STi. Flip a coin between the two, and you will own a great car either way. However I think you review of optains was a little baised. This will do a little better:

I'm not downing the SRT-4's, or saying they aren't quick cars, or that they are not great budget cars. Its just that the STi's and Evo's have a heritage together in rally and are really a track car off the shrowroom floor. Both can be made better in many ways, but are great cars out of the box. I compare the SRT-4 as this generation's Grand National(which I would take with honor). A lot of people feel the same way about the SRT-4 as they did about the GN, "A V-8 should not lose to a V-6." Now its ten fold when 4 bangers are killing GT mustangs stock vs stock. I mean that they are quick in stock form, but with little money, can be made dangerous.(I speak from experience).

that is all.

I didn't take your comment as if you were downing the SRT-4 and I completely understand where you're coming from. To be honest, I didn't think the SRT-4 would be able to compete with the STi & EVO in a race due to the all wheel drive and, I was shocked to see some of the results I saw. I guess seeing is/was believing but, again, I see where you're coming from. Its all good.
