the IX MR IMHO is the better car than the X
pound for pound though, I think the X MR is a bit better in overall performance than the GR STi
driven both and liked the handling in the X better
too bad they don't have a proper 6spd but a flappy paddle gear box instead

AH but you're incorrect there sir, the Evo X DOES come with a manual tranny if you just buy a GSR instead. Worth it to get the GSR instead imo, if ONLY for the manual trans. Then again that's because I always modify my cars, and the flappy paddle setup can't handle buckets of torque.

I think you should try something new... This is my second Subaru and I'm about 80% sure my next car won't be a Subaru. I like to have something new and different and I did try out an Evo for a while and the power and handling is better than the Subaru... But it's not a very fun DD. But still a lot of fun

If you really want to try something different, look into one of the new Camaros. They're finally up to 21st-century technology. Fully independent rear end, great overall chassis, gobs of power. The SS has 422 hp, and in a couple years there will be a Z28 model that will have the LS9 motor from the CTS-V (which makes 556 hp).
