Since I own already an Evo, I will go with no hesitation for the STi SPec - C '06.

If I was looking for a new car and had a none, I will go for the Evo IX Rs.

Wich one is fast? I don't really care since I don't race with it.

Bleuh... voila

Yep, the spec c was the second place finisher, 3.33 seconds behind the Evo 9 RS after 5 laps at Tsukuba. Both Evo's had the fastest lap times though. But these results were with JDM evo's, which have AYC (active yaw control) which is not available in the states. I would think that the AYC plays a big roll in cornering speed.

I'm pretty sure the USDM Evo 9 will not have AYC. Check out these Mitsubishi links:

Don't see any mention of AYC, only ACD. Damn, if it did come with AYC I'd have to sell my STi!
