I know they're much older and have the potential to be more problematic and less reliable but if I was going to get an Evo it would be a 5 or a 6.5 TME. The Evo V has always been my favourite shape. From 7 - 9, in my opinion, they got the shape all wrong and the Evo didn't look good again until the 10. So, for me, unless it was a mint Evo V or VI.5 I'd go the scooby.

I think it's a proven fact that Evo's would beat the STI on a track (talking about stock cars) because of all the techno gadgets under the Evo's bonnet.
I have no idea about maintenance cost on the Evo's so can't chime in about running costs. However, in the words of Jeremy Clarkson, Evos are the better cars on track but STIs are better to live with everyday. p.s. I was just watching Best Motoring and they mentioned that alot of the extra stuff that's on the 8 MR was carried over to the 9 (like to alloy roof), so 9 is really the better car if costs isn't a concern. |

i obviously dont know for sure, but im betting the sti 6 speed drivetrain is stronger/better than the evo 8MR/9 6 speed.
happy to be proven wrong tho |
