I have test driven my friends evos before i had gotten my own
Big difference of comfort and ease of driving spiritedly. Now i know what you mean when Top Gear reviewed this car and said a 16 y/o can drive this car and not mess up using the AYC and whatnot.
Subaru whole different story, When in Doubt...FLOOOR it. it will break loose since it has no type of AYC and i had my diff fully OPEN.. so everytime the twisties came, i relied on throttle to gain control again.
In conclusion, the New EVOX is far more comfortable, easy to drive, doesnt hurt my back from long period of time (recaros ftw).

They are awesome cars. Truth be told I love the Evo and the Sti, but given the choice i would actually buy an Evo.
Oh, and where are the pics

Exactly, given the choice between the 08sti and evox....EVOX. Knowing that the 08's have problems and even more sensitive motors than previous years and handling is incomparable.
only pic i can shoot with right now is my camera on my phone but once i have my good friend with the goooood camera, ill be sure to take some and post. Hell, he might come with us to the meet and take pics of everyones car!

Hi guys! resurrecting this thread! haha.
alittle update, i traded in my good ol wagon. Got my self a evo X.
So far with 8k on the car with some lowering springs and a tune(no physical mods), i am loving this car. I keep reminding myself that i need to come to the meets and hang with you guys more often. Hbspeed tuned my evo x stock, and this is what it got
I am amazed on how well this car handles, with the summer tires, ayc and all.

Welcome back - long time, no see. Congrats on the car - glad to hear it's treating you well. I'm really impressed with the numbers the Evo X spits out with tuning and minor boltons. What's next on the mod list?
