...too bad it does not change the fact that the STi is uglier than sin.

In the world of speed looks don't or at least shouldnt matter. Faster is faster.

I think it looks excellent as well, miles better than the Evo X... Although I prefer the Evo IX over both.

to each his own.

I'm with Chris. The old sti looked like a matchbox car. The new impreza is a huge improvement imo. Both the last and current gen evo's look pretty sweet. Too bad the new one weighs so much.

i would still take an Evo why is it that they wont change the look of the Sti ?

are you blind? They change front fascias every 2 years, and just changed the entire body style from a sedan to a hatchback with completely different fascias front and back...

I like them both but with a slight edge to the Evo in looks.

Both cars have grown up considerably.

But I would take the STI despite being more expensive, it's much better than the car it replaces in every possible way, WITHOUT losing any of it's character.

I think the Evo has lost a touch of Evo-ness.

That's true. But in the world of selling cars it always matters. Sometimes more than almost anything.

The guy in the IX took off so hard.

 

[Aharami]

what the point of even putting that G37 in there?
