Originally posted by Auto-X Fil: The STi is a better handler. According to Motor Trend "You can grab it by the scruff of its neck and throw it around, and it'll reward you with heroic deeds." And, "More fun than the Evo; tossable and a more rewarding drive." It's also cheaper. AND, Subaru has a great warranty program. Mitsubishi may not be in buisiness long, and has always had the worst support in the buisiness. Yes, the Evo is a great car, and is much less common, but did you ever think that there might be a reason more people buy Subies?
Going once...
Going twice...
Not by much......STI is like .93 lateral G and the Evo is .92 lateral G. 
I have done my research and for the most part with proper maintainence the EVO is damn reliable car. Just the fact you can gain over 20 WHP with an exhaust and another 20 WHP with a reflached ECU on the EVO wins it for me. All I gotta say is don't knock it until you have driven one.
