Well i have a EVO and my brother has an STI....

It really depends on what your looking for. If your going to mod the crap out of it i would with out a doubt get the IX SSL (Sound Sun and Luxury package). if your only going to do exhaust MBC and Flash then i would get the STI. as far as fun factor goes i say they are very close together, although my Bro's STI feels heavier than my EVO for some reason. Mitsu is very stingy about there waranties you would be hard pressed to get them to not void yours if you have ANY mods done.

I have a AMS stroked 2.3, gt 30r EVO.. i have 493WHP and 514WTQ
My bro has a few bolt ons, but both are a plast to drive.

I say go for the EVO 4G63 all the, but the STI is and awesome car also

I can't beleive this is a mitsubishi picture??? the Evo's have always had horrible fender gap in the front (much worse in the front than the rear) but this car is fairly level and appears fairly low???

I am now flip flopping on weather to get a C6 (no one seems to want to let me order with my Supplier Pricing) or get an Evo IX MR or just keep my Mustang.

There will always be a better car coming around the corner, if you play the wait and see game, you'll end up taking the bus. I would wait until you HAVE to buy a new car and see what is available. No use in pondering until the next car is a must.

I have day dreaming about my next car when the S2000 lease is up in March '07 too... So don't listen to me... I hope to buy a used Maserati Coupe or XKR Jag. Getting in/out of the S2000 everyday gets old on the back, but I love to drive it once buckled in.

yeh version, I think i will sell my S sooner, probably aug early sept. By Aug the prices wont be inlfated to much on EVO IX SSQ? and MR. also by that time the IX.V will be out. I just want a modelw ith HIDS I will stop by your dealer but no tpaying more than MSRP. I will be aiming for a few % points below MSRP which shouldnt be a prob by then as I just want get in and out........Also funyn thing is...as hyped up the X will be, do not buy the 1st year model is what people are saying to me......So that put EVO X out to maybe even 2009 if it will be out in 08. enjoy my IX for a few years and move on to X Again this is if nothing crazy happens like STI gets 350 HP
