Right now I own a 1996 ST Coupe, but I would really like to have more power, and even more than that, I would like to have all wheel drive. I'm really into the whole rally scene, which can't be done with a front wheel drive car.
Now, I love my Celica, don't get me wrong. I really do, and probably more than the car its self, I really love this forum. It's taught me a lot of things. But, should I try to get my hands on a 6'th gen GT-Four (LHD), or should I just move on and try to get a Lancer Evo? I'm really torn. I don't really have the money right now, but I would really like to change it up at some point. Anyone have some good advice? Anyone driven an Evo, gen 6, 8, or 10? Anyone driven both a GT-Four, and an Evo? I'd really like to compare, and get a feel for which direction I should move. Thanks for all your input.

I voted Evo, but I would personally recommend you go with a WRX or STi. The 2002 and 2003 WRX's had the weak tranny problem, but my 02 never had any issues. I wouldn't worry about being a "copy cat" if anything it would be fun to have similar cars, I'm sure there's a local Subaru club you could both join.
Plus after driving both an Evo and an STi, I personally feel the STi is the better car. Both are great though, and would be a much more realistic option for you. -------------------- 1999 Celica GT
