It's just that some people want to use this as an Evo vs Sti chart to say:
"See the Sti is the better car!"
And I don't think is relevant. As Chronohunter said is a completely different animal to the US Sti! just like an FQ is different to a US Evo.

My point is it is possible to take either one of the base US models with an unlimited budget turn em into world rally class cars.
But we already have a good idea of the baseline US models we have and their handeling characteristics.

So what's with the; "my daddy is stronger than your daddy jousting?!"

The diff between the US Sti and the spec C is far greater than the diff between the MR and the FQ300MR. The spec C is more like a sharper FQMR than a US spec Sti.
