Question Evo Viii Vs. Wrx Sti

I'm curious about all the comparisons between these too vehicles. I personally own a 2004 Evo VIII. I like the look alot better then the Sti and the fact that its a 2.0 liter instead of the STI's 2.5. I'm curious putting these cars stock to stock on the track which car is the true leader in performance and mobility? In all my research it seems the EVO takes the lead but am I really right? I would appreciate any thoughts and responses on this rival. Thanks

bmaga123 doing a search you will see hundreds of opinions about this.... the consent is equal or better then the sti in every field by a slight margin.... the only thing the sti really has is a better ride, abit nicer interior and a hoodscoop (if ur into that).... oh i forgot.. the sti also has 6 speed and a bulletproof tranny

I think the STI may be faster on the straights, but an Evo will definately take it on the turns.

i think you won't get the truth of it by posting here only,

same thing when you posted at STI wrx forum,

i think it's really depends what way you try to compare,

i like them both, only has money to go with one of them,
if i could, i really like to have them both to play around.

Both are great little cars. I've always liked the interior of the STI more but the price is a little steep.

I am sure here a evom we all think the STI is better so that's why we bought the EVO. Then again, I am sure at nasioc, all the STI owners think the EVO is better so that is why they bought the STI.
