If going by looks, Evo 9 all the way...as much as the peanuts are good, the shape is getting old as balls (flame suit has been prepared)
As for the older Evos...everytime i see a 4/5/6, i immediately start having flashbacks of the early 2000s when every idiot had a CE lancer with evo kit.....yuk. |

Dom, what exactly do you want to achieve?
If mainly a daily driver then go Subaru...

Remember 6 speeds on the Evo's are actually the weaker box. 5 > 6 in evo world.
Insuring an import 8MR can be an issue if you use mainstream insurers. Whereas a 9 being Aus delivered makes it a lot easier. As mentioned 9 has Mivec out of the box. As for which is faster... Stock for stock there wouldn't be much in a 05STi vs 8MR/9. Advantage for the Evo is they are a twin scroll setup from factory and have FMIC for easier power upgrades. If I didn't have my GC8 project, I'd have a 05 STi. Or a 2008 Evo X 5 speed...

not suprisingly, on the subaru forum, the 05 sti is leading the poll, but I think it is the better option. Stick with what you know. Evo's are a great car, but harder to live with every day IMO than an STI. (turning circle for one :P)
The 05sti is still a great shaped car and can be made to look oh so good! 05 STI for me |

Seeing you have already owned a 06 sti before, i would probably go for an evo. Would be nice to jump into a different machine and learn new things about modding an evo.
05 sti prices are fairly decent 24-27k would most likely get you a nice example. At the end of the day I'm sure if you test drive each of the 3 options you will make up your mind easily. |
