Sti VS Evo - Posted By jiMMythejerk (jimmythejerk) on 27th Jan 10 at 1:23pm
well im in the market for a new ride. what would you buy and why? ive heard the evos are cheaper to upgrade. just browsin for info and opinons. lookin at 04's on up. 20k range.

ive ridden in pirate lances old evo and lets just say i was impressed as we pulled away from a street bike on 193 to gtown from pville. wish i was buying back then.

:boobs:

i dont know much about either car but from what i have heard they are both pretty badass cars. if it was ME i would go with the sti because i like the over all look of the car inside and out :thumbsup: just my 2 pennies :flipoff:

Id say STI all the way! Cant go wrong with subaru. Im still regreting getting rid of the 02 WRX i used to have. By far the funnest and best car i ever owned! I will get an sti if i get another car car. But evo's are nice too!

Re: Sti VS Evo - Posted By matt (matt) on 28th Jan 10 at 12:53pm
From what I've read in magazines Evo's are faster/handle better but they also cost more. Personally I would buy a subaru because I like the way they look and they are still fast as hell!

I like the subarus. I like street bikes better than both. Don't judge that evo based on some spode that can't ride {Cheesy} I'll make thet car look foolish.. hell I'll give away one of my two wheels even {Cheesy}

I drove an 03 wrx yesterday. Holy shit, I had to back out of the throttle when the boost kicked in. That sucker was pretty fast, and sharp looking. Almost as nice as my Del Sol.

thats a nice car. probably worth the drive to go check it out.

Re: Sti VS Evo - Posted By HOGAN (hogan) on 3rd Feb 10 at 6:13pm
That color blue on those cars is too bright for me but I still like it! I almost bought one back in 03 but I bought a truck instead, wish I still had that truck.

I almost bought a neon SRT 4. It was either that or the Rubicon. The rubicon won that battle.

Re: Sti VS Evo - Posted By WagBag (cldaslfe) on 26th Feb 10 at 1:12pm

Re: Sti VS Evo - Posted By mikeb (mikeb) on 27th Feb 10 at 9:30am
Sweet car.



With a spoiler like that should be good for 200+ mph

Re: Sti VS Evo - Posted By jiMMythejerk (jimmythejerk) on 28th Feb 10 at 2:34pm
book says 125mph. ha ha

23mpg driving like a total ass. not bad. didnt buy it save gas. ill drive the next tank more moderatly and see what she gets.

so far it is a kick in the pants

Re: Sti VS Evo - Posted By fuzzyz (fuzzyz) on 28th Feb 10 at 2:47pm
if it is like mine it is speed limited to 125mph and no passing that unless you reprogram. handled good that fast too and got up there pretty quick!
