I totally do not agree. I think the front of the Evo looks better than the front of the STi. And, hood scoops are 60's Detroit Iron crap! The tastefull intakes in the hood of the EVO are much nicer. As far as handling, I also do not agree. Every car magazine review agrees with me, the EVO handles better, with no understeer. The STi plows.
The EVO's hood isn't an intake and I wouldn't call it tasteful. The EVO handles better UNLESS YOU push the STi. The EVO feels a lot more stable and that's why many mag drivers get better lap times from it. While the STi doesn't feel real stable it can be pushed to have better times than the EVO even though it may feel a lot more comfortable doing it in the EVO. A company in motor trend's tuner section got 70hp to the wheels on a normal wrx with just exhaust, computer, and intercooler pipe. That and that the turbo (a mitsu turbo I believe) is running a lower PSI (meaning it can be pushed up some and still not be compromising to reliability) is enough for me to go for the STi.
