and take in consideration who tested the subaru, its Keiichi
Tsuchiya. well u should know hu is he. i cannot say subaru is a
worst car. subaru sti is a good car but its still lose out to
mitsubishi evo a little. and come on, no offence, but yours are
outdated. =) and get it right, the STi Spec C is meant to go up
against an EVO IX MR RS not MR, cuz the spec C is striped like the
MR RS and the normal MR is loaded with comfort equipment.
There was judder in the launch for the Spec C vs MR RS, which
caused a gap of 0.2 secs only... and in the Edmunds video, even
though the STi is slower on the track, it was faster on the launch
and straights. This doesn't exactly prove your case :D
Anyway, having experience with both cars, I don't think its worth
bickering which is better... they are both darn good, with the Evo
being slightly better overall in terms of driver feel when both are
stock spec. After modding, its anyone's game. Evo used to reign in
WRC during Tommi Makkinen's time.. but after that they started
losing it badly and they later gotta drop out due to financial
problem...
So each brand got their great moments and their down lows... but
for that little bit of diff of performance vs the price diff here
in sg, STi is the winner.. well at least for 07 models... 08 price
almost same.. guess its up to individual liking
