the new wrx/sti is for people that hear that the car is fast and do not care they are driving around in a butt ugly car. The performance is there for both those cars to make them respectable to most enthusiast .... but normal people and even some enthusiast will still say ugly car and for the price the performance is not good enough to force people into getting used to the appearance of the car.

If a car looks like the ugliest thing in the world but it's the fastest car in the world I would choose it over anything without any hesitation.

In the end, performance is more important. Look at the RX-8. It's not a bad looking car, just butt slow. Most non-car people find both the EVO and STI to be silly looking.

Yay! Still looks like a turd. Even the car magazines don't like the styling, and the performance has become "numb"

Thankfully the Evo will still be picking on the old and new WRX's a like. The newer wrx will just get walked a tad slower.

The evo also costs more than the WRX, you might as well say that the Porsche GT3 RS will always beat up the evo.

Subaru's sales are actually up quite a bit from last year, I'm not sure how Mitsubishi is doing. I've only seen maybe 3 evos driving around while I'm seen a good dozen STIs.

i think the evo and sti are two of the best looking cars ever made........
