yea. different letters. no but for real. i haven't even seen a new STI that isn't a wagon... i don't like the new look of either car but think that Mitsu did a much better job of keeping it sporty. EVO X w/ it's AYC. DEFINATLY!!!!
and seriously... what did you think we'd say? this is

Okay. Im going to quote Car&Driver and Road&Track.
Out of the VW Golf R32, EVO X, and STi, the STi came last, and the EVO came first. Why?
STi:
Highs: Fantastic high-end grunt, supple ride, an interior worth of the sticker price.
Lows: Vague, overly assisted steering; flaccid power below 4000 rpm; a chassis set to terminal understeer.
EVO X:
Highs: Yaw control that abolishes understeer, awesome grip, great low-end torque for a turbo.
Lows: Needs a telescoping steering wheel, one more gear, and an interior worth the price.
This is a direct quote from Car&Driver. (I couldnt find the road and track one) lol.
I would 100% agree with what is written here. I would have also added that the STi is incredibly ugly for one, and if you ever decide to modd the hell out of the car, the EVO can handle a crap load more power on the stock internals than the STi. The reason being, its horizontally opposed motor.
They both blow. My advice would be to wait atleast a couple years to see if their ugly asses can atleast be proven.

i still say that the IX is the way to go until some numbers come up on the X with it taking Mod's. I don't think i need to mention how well the IX takes mods and throws huge HP numbers your way.
The new STI is a 14 second car, bah on them. EVO X is a 13.9 which is borderline. Buschar should have some kind of numbers within 6 months on exhaust, intake, incerooler pipe and boost levels. should be intersteing.
