here are my reasons:
1) i love subaru. i have owned a wrx before and i just loved that car.
2) i drive my car a lot on the city of Boston and it does get tiring after a while due to the stiff suspension.
3) i love the STI and even though it does not handle as good as my EVO, i stil think that it is an amazing machine.
4) i would like to try something differnet.
5) i don't plan on modding the engine at all so it really doesn't matter to me which car is better as far as mods go. i love suspension and i am good at that with the WRX.
6) i love subaru
7) i need a little more comfort.

oh yeah, here in Chicago if you do get the EVO, visit AMS http://www.automotosports.com/ they are located in Arlington Heights. (they had a 550whp EVO, I dunno if they still have it, but if they do, you can ask for a ride.......)
