Ahhhhh EvoX vs. STI

ICEMAN99TURBO · 09/29/2009, 08:09 PM

Ahhh, it is that time again!

Jeremy Clarkson from Top Gear reviews and compares the new Mitsubishi Lancer EVO X and the new Subaru WRX STi.

SlamminGT · 09/29/2009, 08:11 PM

I thought motor trend or some other car magazine did this already? And the Evo took the prize.

Still good video none the less.

I love it when he says, "I had a 14yo set up all the controls for me."

No Evo vs STI battle is ever official untill Top Gear steps in.

Steveodotcom1 · 09/29/2009, 08:23 PM

Cool video.

Silvertune · 09/29/2009, 08:26 PM

I think I'd take the subie for the boxer. It just sounds too good to pass up.

That is the truth. They make the comparisons so much more entertaining.

Vicious · 09/29/2009, 08:56 PM

Damn that's a pretty old episode

High_flier · 09/29/2009, 09:23 PM

the sti insurance rates are 2.5 times higher than evo : (

Top Gear- EVOX vs. WRX STi

Clipzin33 · 10/01/2009, 08:45 PM

I wish I had a Evo or STI instead of this piece of shit in the snow.

Sure, until the Stig actually took a turn behind the wheel and whooped the Evo X's time in actual, real-world track driving.

Clipse3GS · 10/02/2009, 08:47 AM

Its funny that alot of STI owners that changed to Evo's said they would never go back to Subaru after owning an evo...

EVO > STI

I would rather have the slightly slower sexy evo than the faster fugly sti.

kabob · 10/02/2009, 06:00 PM

I would drive neither as they're both ugly as fuck. There's no such thing as the lesser of two uglies.

How can you say this is ugly

kabob · 10/02/2009, 08:09 PM

Way to pull out a modded car

Anyways, yes, to me it's ugly chiefly because I find it ludicrous to be putting so much R&D into making sedans sporty. And really, the boy racer looks aren't attractive to anyone older than 25. I'm thirty years old, I'd be embarassed to drive around in cars like that. Just my opinion, and opinions are like assholes.

Clipse3GS · 10/02/2009, 08:13 PM

Car has wheels and drop and rest of it is stock. I guess to each his own

Well instead Kabob would choose his ride of choice...

I'll just leave this here (About my almost certain future car)

In the past, if you wanted a forced induction, all-wheel drive monster with telepathic abilities that can make even the most hamfisted feel like driving deities, you were left with a singular option: the Mitsubishi Evolution. However, some of us actually want to enjoy our time inside and stay on the DL while doing it. Cheap plastics, wonky switchgear and a comically oversized (if functional) rear wing are fine when you're 25, but not when you're looking for an entertaining way to end your day while toiling away in Middleagedom. So what Audi's created is an Evo for the discerning, low-key enthusiast. A sports sedan you actually want to drive, but aren't forced to. And on that measure, they've succeeded – brilliantly.
