Leave driveway alone.. lol...
60-0 in 100 feet is SICK, BEST i EVER seen or anyone. I think think Porchse with ceramics can come close to that...
I still like STi more..
Autoweek also has STi write-up (not comparison) dated april 28th, I am too lazy to link you, but NASIOC has a link)..

Like most US publications, they're always wary of choosing an "out right" winner. Just look at the title of the article.
At least they've (Autoweek) got more believable 0-60 etc.. times down. Motor Trend and Car & driver each showed the Evo as faster... something I just dont get!

Quoted from the article: "STi will keep you out of trouble no matter how bad you are at hitting apexes on the logging roads" That sounds like my driving 
STi all the way for me... What a shame they complain about no radio in the STi... Who needs a stupid stock radio?!?

The lack of a radio in the STI
It is too bad that Subaru doesn’t put a radio in the STI. The stock speakers in my WRX were awful, but the 6 CD/cassette/radio head unit was a keeper.
Now I'll have to drop another $1000 to get some good tunes in a $32K car. That's an expensive oversight on Subaru's part.
However the road handling on the apexes is priceless.

Car Info: 2004 WRB Subaru WRX STi
about the female remark, i'm not going to touch that with a ten foot pole.
about the evo tho i would like to give my .02. i went to look at the car today and i must say that my breath was taken away. the front doesn't look all that bad and the seats are pretty sweet when i got to sit in it. i've seen pictures and all of the evo on the computer, but you have to see in real life. unfortunately, i can't compare since i haven't got the chance to see the STi with my own eyes, but i can't wait. i really can't wait till it's my turn on the list to go play with the STi. afterall number 3 isn't far after number 1. meanwhile, i'm going to take the evo for a testdrive friday to see what i like more. afterall they are two different cars.

Re: The lack of a radio in the STI
The engine will make sweeter sounds than any radio can crank out, so don't sweat it.
