IMHO,the X is street/track only...no off road

well if you just bought a 35+ thousand dollar car and that was your DD i dont think you would take it rallying either.

if its just b/c its AWD that you want it to be a rally car go buy a VW or a passat, or something else thats ugly and doest matter if it gets ruined

that being said, the evo platform i think is most oriented towards rally its awd, tough, and can perform good in pretty much any situation. not dry track performance, thats for rwd 2 seaters. not drag racing, thats for rednecks and crappy cars. not street racing, cause thats for rusty crx's and illegal immigrants.
its good for auto x, but just like road racing, its not the ideal platform.
and not so much for just driving around normally, it works well for it, but you can do that in a 5000 dollar honda just as well.
so if i had to say something id say rally.
at this. this is so heavily opinionated i just had to quote it.

stock evos are fun cars for the average joe. they're not race cars until you prep them for whatever application you want to run. obviously it is a rally-bred car but it is still a street car. personally i think the best places for it are 1) in the dirt 2) on a road course. but there are people with 8 second evo's so to each their own.
