For example, the Suby has cruise, the Evo doesn't (unless you get an after market set-up).

I've driven both platforms and I gotta say, IMO the STi is sloppy in comparison to the Evo in the corners. If your going to do any modifications, then go Mitsu...you'll get way more power for less $$ and headaches.

Someone in the first page of this thread summed it up the best, it all falls onto personal preferance. After owning an Evo, I'd honestly never want to own an STi...and i'm sure vise-versa for the suby guys.
well said
mitsu's make better power for less money and are easier to work on and maintain!
sti better dd.. but when modding get ready for $$$ and headaches!

yes if anyone ever planning on modding an evo you DONT want a 6 speed.. you will blow out 3rd alot... i know many people with mr's that swapped for 5 speeds..
