The new STi may have superior extreme handling capabilities (which are still inferior to the last generation Evo) but it's honestly one of the ugliest cars ever made. I don't even want to waste any wit trying to describe how ugly it is.

Nice car otherwise. I really like the pre-2008 STi...

the 2011 kind looks good i think ( or well better than the hatch)

good review too

I'm very biased, but it still looks like *** compared to the Evo X:

shabarivas · 07-21-2010, 05:37 PM

ehh i used to own an X... it does not look all that good... seriously - I doubt many ppl buy an Evo or a STi for the looks...

FuszNissan · 07-21-2010, 05:39 PM

That Subaru is ugly

MC · 07-21-2010, 06:47 PM

oh no doubt.. i would take an EVO MR over the new STI based on looks ... just saying i hated the STI hatch version and was glad to see this is a return to form.. but being honest going by looks i wouldnt have either... i would take a NISMO 370 no question over either not even a discussion... but for something like autoX pruposes ehh might be a different story.. def more purpose driven cars where the Z is a classic coupe with sleek looks

fullmonty · 07-21-2010, 07:53 PM

Never was ever reallly taken by the Evo or STI, both fast cars but I've always been more of a Ford guy

This Evo pic looks very nice!

wanted to add another random thought.. i wouldnt buy a car like the STI and EVO for the fact that they are close so appearance wise to the regular everyday versions on the road.. i dont know how many times i see a lancer from a distance and think its a evo and and i see WRX's with bike racks and baby car seats... so as a real sports car enthusiast its a turn off..

same to extent with a camaro or mustang.. you save up get a really nice one of those put exhaust or whatever on it and then a 60 year old woman smoking a virgina slim pulls up to you at the stop light in a V6 version looking just like you...

so thats one thing the Z really has going for it.. its a stand alone car.. just something to consider in the argument

I completely agree. That's one thing that turned me off of a Evo/STI at the time I bought my Z also.

The "Z" is also more of a classy, older car. All of the Evo/STI owners in my neighborhood are high school kids or emos LOL

I would take the hatch over the sedan anyday. Always been a fan of STi's. I think the 09 looks better than this one though.

bigaudiofanat · 07-21-2010, 11:36 PM

I want that evo x

Jamaica · 07-21-2010, 11:43 PM

evo x is a fast a$$ car for a 4 cylinder.
