All three of those cars have been updated since then, so I don't see how this ends anything. The article is three friggin' years old

cos even though the cars have changed since then they're still equal (not sure about the r32).....both companies are trying to beat each other but they just end up equal, people end up comparing 1/4 times and lap times but they just end up getting nothing out of it....this is by far the best comparison i've seen even though it's 3 years old

So you are saying an EVO with 120hp more and you pay almost $50k for is the only "real deal."

Than I must say that no one should be caught dead in no other STi aside from the ESX edition.

Re: the end of all evo vs sti comparisons with a german added to the fight

i was refering to the EVOs in the US not having the same equipment that is standard in them in the rest of the world, most noticably the active yaw control, which is probably the greatest influencing factor (in my opinion...) in the difference in handling between the STi and EVO.
