STi Hatchback or Evo X?

I am just curious how many people plan on sticking with Subaru when they come out with STi Hatchbacks in 08 and who is planning on jumping ship and buying an Evo X?
If those were my only two choices and I couldnt get an 04-05 STi, I would have to ditch Subaru and get an Evo... sad to say, but I am not into what the Impreza is evolving into. I like the classic style, but maybe if the released hatchback models get refined they may grow on me.

let me know what you think

Well, can't be too worried over rumors and concept sketches.

I dont know, I have seen a lot of websites with that pic and it gets me nervous. Hopefully they keep the sedan in the US and add the hatchback so it gives us 3 to choose from!

I'd get a hatchback STI. It will help the car blend in with traffic

You have some info on this? Last time I bought a new WRX the STi came out like a month later.. Don't want to get a new '06 just in time to find out how awesome the new ones are.

can someone pull up some links or pics of the sti hatchback. considering the POWER performance of the STi it would be THE total SLEEPER on the street but wouldn't be appealling for the "fast sylish scene" which i don't really care for. it's all about seeing the person i'm racing in my REAR VIEW MIRRORS!

if i want style i'de just get a BIMMER..
