great example of just how bad ass of a car the evo8 is. this is with just basic, exhaust, flash and cams.

surprise ending too. .haha.

it won't be my next car though... my friend owns a EVO 9 and i drives it every time he comes visit.. it's fast, nice handling etc.. but.. not a car that's worth $30+k..

i think they could have done better with the gauge cluster and the interior. the sti has it beat in that department. but, if you factor in the motor, BIG turbo, BIG brakes, 20psi stock boost, awesome racing seats, AWD, great factory suspension, a ECU that you can reflash all you want, etc...etc.. etc... you can clearly see the value in all of that. most other 30k car might have more luxury items, but they wont have all the performance parts the you get with the evo.

you're right about that point art. EVO does have better factory performance parts compared to the STI.. the EVO MR version's handling definitely better than the STI stock. it doesn't hit 20psi stock though... i maxed out my friend's evo IX at 18psi then it drops to like 14.. it doesn't hold at 18psi. racing seats are nice.. but don't get the leather ones. totally defeats the purpose..and the new STI limited edition, might be the better choice now since they have completely redone the suspension, even better than the new 06 STI.
