CHAOS · 12-01-2006, 01:58 PM

this is spawning from another thread... as a whole i personally think subaru dominates anything mitsubishi offers... the evo and sti are very close... the evo is a better performing car with the evo9 coming out... BUT as an entire entity the company sucks. so vote... tell me what you think.

TTsupra911 · 12-01-2006, 02:03 PM

Subby makes better cars, however I personally would take the Evo over the STi

CHAOS · 12-01-2006, 02:05 PM

i dont think i could get used to daily driving an evo... they just feel cheap... im not saying my car is luxurious ... im saying its not an evo.. lol

On an overall view I'd say subies. However, mitsubishi imo doesn't make bad cars, I just think subaru makes better cars.

JSeoul · 12-01-2006, 02:28 PM

Subaru has other vehicles than the WRX? hahaha.

Evos>subarus

JSeoul · 12-01-2006, 02:39 PM

4-doors FTL.. but I do like the STI and EVO's

tjf · 12-01-2006, 02:43 PM

from a business standpoint mitsu is lucky they are still around, Subaru is definatley a better run company. But no one with an evo is gonna say subaru is better and the same goes for the subaru owners. Id go with subaru becasue of reliablity and AWD on every car they make

exactly what I'm sayin. And this is from a non-biased standpoint cuz i dont own either. (i wish i did lol)

sisforsurfing · 12-01-2006, 05:58 PM

Every car Subaru makes is a solid vehicle that I wouldn't mind driving, barring some being a little ugly. The Evo is one of my favorite cars (even though I'm a WRX driver and would buy an STI instead), and from strictly a performance standpoint, is more mod friendly. But what else does Mitsubishi make that you want to drive? And how reliable are they, when Subaru has been taking home reliability awards from JD Power & Associates for a few years now? In general, Subaru crushes Mitsubishi.

Let's not make this an Evo vs. STI thread though, we all know where everyone's allegiances lie

I must agree with this statement. But I do believe as a company Subaru is better but not for the cars they make. I just believe the Evo to be superior in alot of aspects especially in the catagory of looks. I drove the 2006 STI and yes it drove nice I just hate they way they look. I do on the other hand like the 04-05 STI's, it's just I wouldn't buy a used turbo car. The IX is a bad MFr.

D Money · 12-01-2006, 06:53 PM

CHAOS · 12-01-2006, 08:24 PM

If that's not the pot calling the kettle black I don't know what is.

the STi is nasty as far as interiors go. Cheap plastic as far as the eyes can see.

CHAOS · 12-01-2006, 08:53 PM

right... but you cant just yank and have half the dash come off... AND the seats are way more comfortable for daily driving...

Do you guys realize how big Mitsubishi is? I think Subaru is a better car manufacturer, but Mitsubishi is a better "company".

In Japan Mitsubishi has their hands in EVERYTHING! They are hands down the biggest company in the country. Mitsubishi produces cars, electronics, nikon cameras, nuclear power, and a ton of other things. Mitsubishi also owns the largest bank in Japan.

So while Mitsubishi Motors may be mis-managed (they are getting much better), the company Mitsubishi as a whole in insane!
