Old video, but still great.

I think both cars are great. No clear winner or loser, in "real world" driving. Even the hosts talk about going back to the STi for their "drive back". I'll take both please.

Very old....

That's the old BS review from Top Gear. They pick the EVO in 3 categories, then mysteriously choose the Subie...

I had this STI chase me down yesterday and he gets next to me reving and looking over. There was heavy traffic on a 40 MPH road, 3 lanes across and I ignored him. Once he got in from of me, his plate read EVOETR. I laughed. This little white boy drives around looking for Evos to taunt.

I was trying to get him to pull over so I could beat the f*ck out of him and rip his plate off, but he would not.

When are these Subi guys gonna learn these cars are almost evenly matched and we are almost like brothers out there, not enemies. Our local weekly Evo meets here in Vegas have Evos and Subarus all at the same place and no hostility. I'm hoping this turd will learn about the meets so he can get sh*t from everyone including other STI owners.

from watching it i didnt get the sense that the evo won, unless your talking just about lap time, but i already knew that outcome before i saw it, especially when they said it was the fq version.

Link didn't work for me. I got a Top Gear video comparing the Radical, Lotus Elise, Caterham 7, and couple of other British sports racers. No EVO and no STi.
