Re: 2008 AWD Battle
You can't see it from the inside. I personally think the new STi looks a brozillion times better than the new Evo but if the Evo were more fun to drive (impossible in this case) then I might consider it over the STi.
And since we're on the subject of outward appereance, here's what people would say when they saw me driving each of these cars-
STi- "Look at that happy-ass good looking dude enjoying the shit out of that strange little car. I wish I was having that much fun."
R32- "Look at that distinguished good looking dude on the way to work in his Golf."
Evo- "Look how unhappy that good looking dude driving that boxy gimmick seems. I wonder how he got duped into buying such a whiz-bang, bodykitted, automatic Lancer. He must be headed to the Kia dealer to trade it in on something that doesn't blow so much nuts."

I agree here. But if it's the same 4g63 that's been in all the previous Evos, I have much faith.

Re: 2008 AWD Battle
Two things:
1. That bullshit they're pushing in these cars isn't anything like what is used in the "racing world."
2. Even if it were, I'm not in any kind of championship so why do I want to deny myself the fun?

STI all day.
volkswagen cars are for homosexuals.
and the new evo with paddle shifting falls right into the homoerotic category as the VW.
while the STI might look like a mazda 3,3 door edition,it still has a better tranny,and better engineering than the other two manufactuers.

According to all the reviews of the X, the road course time is supposedly slightly faster than the IX. Since 99% are straighline performance minded, tell me how many will be keeping any of the cars stock?
