I like the STi, if I was going to be spending $30k on a car with awd I would want it to look like some mountain bikes and snowboards would look at home on the roof. With plenty of room for camping stuff in the rear. Talk about a fun weekend.

i dont know, but if i was to design something, i would atleast make the tires the same...lol

The only way I can see myself buying the STI over the EVO is if the Evo doesn't have a "true" manual shifter in the vehicle.. I've driven paddle shifts before and they just don't FEEL right. I still feel like I'm driving an automatic.

I wish Ford would release the Focus RS Cosworth

that car is soo sexy. I've always thought about getting a usdm focus and converting it.

Anyway, the wrx would look VERY hot if it were released as a 2 door version. And the X is sort of controversial for me. One day I'm into it and then the next I'm not. i think I have to see it in person.

Psshhh, the only real Cosworth was the Sierra/Escort Cosworth...man, that thing was an amazing car.

EVO wins this round (IMO)....also those can't be the final pics of the STi...something makes me think there needs to be more aggressiveness in the design.

Think about it though. Ever new model of STi got more tame and more tame (other then the wings). They got rid of the large fog lights, then the large openingins in the bumper, now it's just super streamline and shitty looking.
