Newb here.......

Hello, I'm looking into buying a Evo and not sure what the best year is. I'm looking into 2004-2007! I come from Subaru STi, I know the STi have great trans and crappy motors. What's the best year and trans combo? I have been looking for months before I came a member for low milage Evo that has never seen snow and comes from a state that don't snow, i just cant find one. I'm very crazy about my cars, I have 07 STi with 4,000 miles on the car and is flawless and looking for something similar for Evo. Looking for stock or built with LOW milage and in flawless condition.......

EVO 7 GTA and EVO 9 wagon GTA are the only auto evos (excluding X), and I don't know if any made it to the states. Best engine and trans, evo 9 engine and 5 speed trans. 6 speed isn't bad, really good for daily driving, the 5 speed is just stronger and more reliable.

Yes, Only 05' MRs and 06' MRs come in 6speed.

08'+ MRs came with padel shifters(SST).
