"when you try to go 0-60 in 4.7 seconds, you dont get a factory warranty"

subaru is actually very good with there warranties from what i hear, i've been all over the iwsti.com forums and havent heard 1 complaint yet, as compared with the evom forums... thats a whole 'nother story

depends on the problem you go in for

luckily, the STI's dont break tranny's. the wrx's on the other hand(especially 02-03) do it quite frequently and the dealers don't like to warranty them. they also blame transmission problems on simple mods like BOV and exhaust

the thing about STI's and EVO's is that they are generally ugly. Sure, you can dress them up, but polishing a turd only goes so far. If I am going to buy a $30,000+ sports car, it won't look like a boxy sedan.

i agree. the cars are ugly, however, most of my time is spent driving the car, not looking at it. as long as im happy with the way the car performs, i'll put up with the fact that it is ugly.

and yes, i drive a wrx, and i am perfectly ok with its ugliness

id take an evo over an sti any day only because i watched this show in japan (the guy spoke in english) and then showed so many features of the evo that u dont normally hear about, plus they showed what it can do stock and then tuned.

Like what? Im intrigued to know what makes the mitsu better than the STI aside from the fact that the STI interior is crap

the JDM evo's have active yaw control. very nice feature, but the usdm evo's dont get that.

other than that feature, there is no other feature that the evo has that is hidden. and again, we dont get that here in the US.

the evo handles better, responds to mods better, and is cheaper to mod than an STI. aside from the weaker transmission, the EVO is definately the better performing car.

also, Jeremy1210, have you been inside an evo? the interior is absolute crap. looks cheap, feels cheap, is cheap.

my friends evo9 has 4k miles on it, by time he had 2k miles on it, it was already rattling everywhere.

the sti interior is way better. the gauges are awesome(unlike the bland evo gauges) and the blue seats and carpet really set the STI apart from the lower model WRX's. the evo looks like a plain old lancer on the inside. the build quality of the STI interior is way better than the EVO
