Meshuggah Posted November 23, 2003 Author Share Posted November 23, 2003 Neither - get yourself a slightly used Audi S4. :yes: im kinda looking in the 30-35k range...and one that beats it and two....both cars are faster than the audi .....though of course its nice to say 'yea i own an audi".... i do like the sound of that but kinda out of my price range....damnit ....i keep writing AUDIO and not audi....did it again right there *sigh* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sn00pY Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 STi is just the damn Subaru mod team/place...stop referring to the WRX as an "STi" *sigh*.. ok WRX...Jap import of the Impreza [European] very nice car...very quick car...very modable car... Evo [VIII i assume]...again very quick car...very nice car...very modable car... BUT... The Lancer is a car at its pure peak...the Subaru is a sexy car but their new body is just no what it used to be...those stupid ass people at Sub ****** that one RIGHT up...the Mits Lancer team done a damn nice job keeping that simple...yet advanced sexy look about the new Evo VIII... the Evo VIII would be my choice...power precision...etc...etc... drive them bother...both are 4WD Cars and are rally cars [obviously your's will not be rally modded] but yeah...nice... Either way the VW Golf R32 still gets my vote...3.2 Liter V6 Engine with 6 speed close ratio gear box...uhh *Creams*... Good Luck! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linsook Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 when u think performance wise, both cars are quite equal, but what tips the scales for me is that the sti looks better than the evo. also u gotta love the button for the wet spray of water to ur intercooler. little added fun.

CloudEngineer Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 I wouldn't mind either, but id get the evo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drov Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 Neither - get yourself a slightly used Audi S4. :yes: You said it best. I would not waste my time or money with either of those cars. You can buy a used S4 and get a reliable, long lasting, fast car that will hang with the cars you've listed. Also, the S4 looks a lot better than the two you've listed. That's my .02 cents.

123_kid Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 I don't know cars but the evo is sweet. My vote is for the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i3iz Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 Well i would get the evo VIII because it is more difficult to keep the boxer engine in its powerband. Also the Evo VIII in black looks better than the scooby. The pink STI stickers are ugly... There are lots of reasons, but you will have to research and decide, but i would ask on car discussion boards and not computer discussion boards, where generally speaking, people will look at a cars peak horsepower and not the whole HP/tq curve... or gearing for that matter. I would goto matrixowners.com and search the forums. There are several guys (XRS-Lift) who have sold their matrixes and bought lancer evo VIII's. he did his 0-60 in 4.41. If you want speed this is not too shabby. I am not a fan of the subaru in comparison to the Evo VIII, the only down side i can think of is the stock tail lights of the EVO 8 are very repulsive. but that is all....

Adster01 Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 Either way, you are one lucky son-of-a-gun! They are both nice cars, and exciting to drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meshuggah Posted November 23, 2003 Author Share Posted November 23, 2003 well i honestly think im going to get the lancer..... TRSUT me......i would get the s4 if i could...but its just too much money now im stuck with another thing.....blue black or silver.... too many damn shoices Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Labtec Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 Out of the two, the evo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bizkit Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 I would say the Lancer. I own a normal Lancer ES, and I love it. Great car. I have drove both of the cars, but the Lancer just seemed funner to me. I think that the best thing to you would be to tets them both, cause you are gonna be the one who has to drive it, not Neowin.

Wildies Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 Man the both cars are in the same catagroy its very hard really which to chosse just go test drive them and see which one suit u more... from inside and options ..etc.... anyone have fun modding them (Y) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
altezza Veteran Posted November 23, 2003 Veteran Share Posted November 23, 2003 This is a tough one...I can't decide between two of them. I prefer to choose RX8 instead even RX8 is slower than both STI and Evo :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blues Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 Sigh, I am HARDCORE EV0, personally though the only one I would really LOVE to have would be an Evo IV, its is and always will be IMHO the best looking and the best performing one of all. But when it comes to the choice between an VIII and an STi (thats weird the gammar in that, if you pronounce it Stee, then its got to be an A before it, if you pronounce it es-tee-eye, then its an, srry to trail, but i spent a while trying to figure out wehter to use, a or an) the STi true has more power, but it does ustilize an outdated audi AWD drivetrain, it all depends in your taste in cars. And both would be a blast to drive and mod. But like i said if you want my opinion, go with the EVO, you wont regret it... as for the color.... white... you cant go wrong crusing in a white Ev0 VIII with some silver reflective tint, or even the darkest shade of black you can get to tint it.... omg... i want my MirAVO IV so much now !!!
