EVO IX vs. 2006 STi good, bad, and ideas
Ok I know this is an Evo forum but I wanted to know your opinions about the Evo IX vs. 2006 STi. I thought this could be a good thread for people to post their ideas about what is good and bad about both the Evo and the STi. Also what ideas or changes you might like to see implemented into either of these cars.

Threads like this turn into flame fests. This is an Evo forum...so of course everyone is going to tell you that the Evo is better!
Moving this to the Future Evo forum. Please pay closer attention to where you place threads. This is the second thread of yours that is placed incorrectly.

There's really not much to compare as of now. We know what the EVO IX looks like, and that it should be a MIVEC 4G63. We know nothing about the 2006 STi. No releases, no nothing.

There seem to be a lot less aftermarket goodies for the STI
The 4g63 is a proven engine

All I have heard is the 2006 STi will get some cosmetic changes, most signs point to ugly, but it could be completely different than we are expecting. As for power, I can't see the STi getting any more power. It barely runs on Cali gas with the power it has now. So they will stick with exterior and possible interior changes for now. We have seen a little bit of the EVO IX, but we still don't know a whole lot. Might want to reopen this thread when they get here.
