if i'm at a dealer or with non-car people i would say 2005 subaru impreza wrx wagon. but if they know about subarus, is it wrong/stupid to call it a wrx (not STi) and assume that they would know it's an impreza?

the headlights are a different shape and rear lights too, the regular lance is more rounder than the evolution model.

then it's prabably the same chassis. The evo 9 is running off the same chassis as the evo 7 and 8. The only differences between thoses 3 are the front bumper, grille and hood


evo 7


evo 8


evo 9

Very true

The sad thing about internet based car forum specific clubs is, they don't know anything about cars.

Best be safe just to assume they have no idea which is why you cal it a 05 subaru impreza wrx wagon.

hhmmm....the car perform different, the regular lancer is not going to have the same hp or all-wheel drive like the evo. They may run on the same chasis, but they don't drive the same. It's almost like they're two different cars

so if I were to swap in the drive train, the engine, the brembo brakes and HIDS to a standard lancer, will that make it equal to your Lancer Evolution MR?
