An absolutely stupid thread, your basing this all off of the STi sliding around the track, where are the hard f*cken numbers dude. I'm all thinking Mitsu is thinking of cutting the EVO or something, dumb *** thread.
that video shows nothing but the driver knowing how to countersteer and flick out the back end. Sorry but that is definetly not the fastest way around a track. Drifting just looks cool. If you try to ride the suspension around the turns you will see the understeer as always. Both the evo and sti have it.

it holds the corner just like our evo yet maybe better and more power

I'll have my Evo 8 4eva! You'll have to pry my cold dead fingers from the steering wheel...
EDIT: I just watched the video... I'm not sure what's special. Can't the '05 STi do a Scandinavian flick around a corner too?

but on the real that STi was bad *** on the track. the new front bumper is the ugliest thing i seen. they should have left the bumper alone and just change that cheap lookin wing

heres my question. why would u place ur air cooling device aka intercooler on top of ur engine? what engineer thought of that idea?

ts like watching a viedo of that agaskai guy(the drift king) go around a track in a silvia and saying were doomed because it drifts good. if the driver was in an evo it would look identicle, it didnt use a 1/4th of its power on that tiny track being sideways the hole time. the only thing we should be worried about is that ur dumb enough to worry about a video.

No sensible person would get rid of an EVO just because of this video. Even if the new STI does come over here with the same specs as the JDM version and it performs like that, most people are still going to keep their EVOs.

Based on your logic, if I watch "The Dukes of Hazzard" I should really be scared and sell my EVO.

I was thinking the same thing. That video means NOTHING to me lol. Hell, it better handle better than the EVO because its styling sure isnt going to sell it.
