The EVO is nice looking but if you see an STi in person, it is one mean looking car...

Wow I think the EVO looks WAY better than the STI, the STI looks almost "wussy" in comparison to me
Way to go EVO!!

Honestly, the Evo has a better body and spacious interior than the STI. Never seen the inside of the STI but by looking at it from the outside, it looks smaller than the Evo. But it is really a nice car too. If I have money, I would like to have the STI too.

You know, way back when I REALLY wanted an STi, I made myself believe I liked the looks of the STi better than the EVO. But now, over a year and a half later, I can't lie to myself any longer. I totally think the EVO's looks better. Not that it matter, because I've already decided to get the EVO instead. Now if only I had the money?

In person the STi looks pretty sharp; I don't think it photographs well, though. And the pictures just don't capture the feel of that hood scoop, in person it seems huge.

Anyway, I've already made my choice and love my Evo, no regrets. Although I wouldn't have minded a cruise control...

The STI actually looks pretty sweet, and silver is of course the best color for any car...

I like the production rims better than the concept ones. The scoop is a bit big, the lights a bit bugeye, but overall its a nice looking car. Definitely good competition for the Evo.

I bet they are saying stuff to the effect of,,,,,, what different sti stickers are you going to get to replace the "pink" ones. Or , "the next person that says my pink stickers are cute is going to get punched".

Not to mention the Post office sized mail box on the hood,,,, what the hell this that??? Maybe it looks better in person, but god, all I can say is got rice baby??

FYI, pink has a totally different meaning in Japan.

You're calling a functional hood scoop rice??

Maannnn, the EVO looks just plain EVIL in silver at night. Especially with the HID-reflections like that. Sti looks somewhat docile next to it, IMHO...
This round goes to the Evo...
