What's wrong with the interior? You people act like it should be all leather and woodgrain. Get over it.

Awesome Handling

Supportive Recaro seats
Trunk Space
Rear Pass leg room
Head room
nice grippy advan OEM tires
Attracts a lot of attention
wide aftermarket parts support

WEAK:

Interior design/quality
paint sucks
clutch sucks
transfer case/tranny (if you abuse it a lot)
tends to oversteer
shifter feel
squeaks and rattles
insurance costs
maintenance costs
gasoline costs

Thats all I can think of, but all the pro's outweigh the cons... if you can afford to budget the EVO into your living/daily expenses, go for it!
How is the oversteer tendancy a bad thing? Would you rather it pushed like a subaru?

You forgot to say it doesn't ride like a cadilac or get hybrid mileage. And it also doesn't give 500lb/ft @ 500rpm.
