Our evo's have been built up som much as the measuring stick that people will just find reasons to rag on it.

When you look at it no car near the money is as capable as an evo. Sti's do tend to feel they are better than us, but whatever I have never lost to one. I could care less if people respect my car, deep down after it is all said and done those people probablly wished they had gotten an evo. I respect anything that is fast and will strike up a convo with any nice car owner. Some people are not like that. Just look at the mustang crowd, they think their cars are the best thing ever built.

Paint your car lime green, get some 2f2f decals, and you will get all the respect !!!!!!!!!!!!

The funny thing is, I bet STI owners get asked all the time why they didnt get a Evo. Most people who talk smack and stuff are really just dreamers and will never own either car....

SRT4 Neons love to race me on the roll... they wanted to take advantage of our AWD system not performing well in the roll.... everytime, but too bad they get pulled hard everytime they try.

I think the Sti is a cool car, but I bought an Evo. I don't see any big 'disrespect' thing going on either way, just individual preference.

I hear it all the time raging on the evo's.It's not everyday you see a 4 cyliner running what I do with 3 small mods.I guess that's the jelousey factor.

Everytime I see a STi owner or a WRX owner I always give them the thumbs up and I get the same, its just the rare fan boys that don't even look my way. Those SRT4 guys don't show no love at all when I see them.

Amen to that. Most of the people talking crap around here don't even have a car!

I get that from my friends also, "why didn't you get the STI instead? They come with DCCD and a 6spd rather than the 5spd GSR"

I guess you can say my 4 pistons are supported by iron, which is more than you can say for the aluminum ones. I also like the fact that our knock sensors work at high rpm's w/o much noise interference likewise the flat 4's of the sti.

but either way, both cars are great for what they are. Best bang for the buck performance. I just have more history with the 4g63
