The insurance gap between STIs and EVOs.....

What year models were you interested in? which Evo? I liked the 08 STi quite a bit. And the 07's are amazing once they are tuned properly. The 08's have 5* safety so I would have thought that might have brought the rates down some.

Honestly "dude". Think what you want, you have that freedom, but I am not the 18 year old thats going to drive like an idiot and street race. I cant explain it over the internet, but im far from a kid.

You can't just go out and say that no 18yo is worthy of an evo... but anyway, I'm 18 and was paying 330 a month on my evo. Insurance screwed it up when they put it back on and I'm paying a pretty 105 a month.. or somtehing like that (full coverage)

No I gave them the VIN for an '04. I hate the look of the '07s+ not to mention I can't afford one of those. 03-05 if I went STI.

By no means was I referring to yours or any other 18yo's driving abilities. I'm not here to argue though so...

Dude I don't know, after enough research I can usually make a decision on something. But I swear this is probably the most even matched decision between 2 choices I've ever had to make. Whatever I go with I'll have it within 2 weeks and regardless of what I get I'll post back on this thread with pix just to kill anyone's curiosity.

If you are planning to mod, even just basic bolt ons.. evo will be the choice.. so much cheaper. But you cant beat that STI blue.. ***cing love that color!

Would you be interested in a WRX? I bet insurance is considerably less. I realize they have some drivetrain limitations but they can be upgraded and they are a light chassis.
Either way, good luck with whichever choice you end up making.

Go with the evo...Idk how it is anywhere else in the U.S. but I can't go a single day with out seeing an STI. They are everywhere. There are three other evo's in my town and you NEVER see any of them. I just enjoy having a car that not every one else has.
