Question Evo VII vs New STi

So what will it be?

The New Evo VII or the STi?

even thought i am an Evo man myself, i have to admit the STi has a nicer interior. But...the only problem is the front. basically its UGLY with those bug eye headlights..

what do you all think?

I like the Sti better, it's big lights are sweet and the carbon fiber/ Aluminium interior is the only way to go! Look at most rally cars anywyas, they have 6+ headlights on the front.

Lightbulb 6+ headlights

So the STi has to be "cooler" and have more hey? hehe :buck

The WRX rally car does look nicer the the STi's i must admit and the interior looks nicer then the Evo VII.

but nah, the Evo VII has something about it!

when looking at both cars at speed, to me the lancer looks bigger, not as muscular, but the wrx looks smaller, dartier, more muscular... it looks a bit faster, if only b/c of the shape...
not to say that the lancer doesnt look it, it just doesnt "look" as fast on tv to me...
i havent driven either, sadly, so i cant choose one for sure
either one is a bit of a sleeper, being four door cars and all... but that is the fun part, right???

Put it this way, its all preference.

If you liked the WRX from its first ever debut, you'll love all the STi's etc... If you liked the Evo I, you'd follow the EVO's...

It is a close competition now, Because EVO's have so much publicity, the STi has felt in the shadows of the Evo..but STi have managed to make the STi very close to the E7 now.

The STi sounds more muscular with its exhaust and all...but the Evo VII is the quiet one that will sneak up on you. The STi doesnt have AYC and ACD does it?




Go EVO.

i just read the article about the ayc and all that, and it is hella cool...
i do like the smart shit that they put in it, but in all honesty, with a car that is built to the hilt like that, how much more can you do? i honestly dont know, so i am asking...
i know that you can do intake and exh, but what else???
i guess that goes for both cars really, what more can you do, unless you put a big mutha funkin turbo on it, bigger than what its got...

Thumbs down STi Design

Subaru really killed their New WRX...the design is shocking!

The rims are Ugly as!!! Maybe if they but on some O.Z superturismo's the WRX would look better!

The new front on the Sub looks butt ugly.

I like the older shape lots more.

I would have to go for the Evo if i was to pick between the 2 of them.

Thumbs up agreed!

Even though im not a WRX man, id agree with you whole-heartidly. The older design looks better, the front lights suck, the rims are ugly, and which garbage tip did they get that Rear wing from?!!! :hehehe:
