Evo Boosting.

I just said what I said because some people have trouble gettin test drives.

One time, which they must have been out of their freaking minds, a Ford dealership let me test drive a brand new 2001 SVT Ford Lightning. Me, a 21 year old guy. That thing can get sideways, let me tell you. I was in the market for a 2001 diesel F-250, but I thought "well, maybe I don't need a diesel...". I drove it, it was fun, but not practical. A reg cab, non 4X4, lowered, small bed truck? Nah, I'll get the F-250. Thanks, though.
I'm not saying the EVO is all that practical either, but after my modded diesel truck got stolen (again, but gone for good
), I wanted something different. Enter the EVO. I miss that truck, but it's hard to look back when I have an EVO.

i have a 340 whp wrx and all i have to say is that my next car will be an evo. IMHO the evo is a much better drivers car whereas the sti has to many comprimises to make it appeal to all the people that want the look of the boy-racer but dont want to deal with the qwirks of a true performance car. i have driven both sti's and an evo 8 and an evo 9 and the evo's deff had the edge. the evo's are more laggy than the subies but that is why there is a gearshift. just learn how to drive the powerband you have.
cushy daily => STi
all out perfomance monster => EVO
PS if you do get an STi make sure that it is an 05 or newer, the 04's missed out on some key upgrades

Its just all about how you carry yourself.
