Is an 03/04 Evo for me? (or should i get save up to get a 05)

well ive been debating this for awhile.
ill be using the car for daily driving to work and school and hangout whatever
and at times i will also do WOT runs on straights and corners occasionaly.
ill be doing minimal mods to it, basically exhaust,bov, the kiddy stuff
i live in seattle and it tends to rain and slush here alot and snow at times
i was wondering if i should save up and get an 05 where it comes with the lsd and acd but would it make that much of a difference on the street?
and what else comes standard on the 05 that isnt on the 03/04 ?
Please help me out since I have very little knowledge of this stuff.
Thanks

hey check out my thread....i had the same problem and i decided to get an 03 or o4 with low mileage. And as far as difference go the 05 comes with the ACD, and i think that's the only difference.

Arrow Differences

I would probably go with an '05. Here is a pretty good thread from about a week ago, that lists the differences between the RS, GSR (base) and MR for 05.

05 probly so you can get the ACD since you'll be dealing with rain and snow on a constant basis. You need new tires on the thing either way.
