Evo Vs. STI: What's Better? | Opposite Lanes

Check out our badass fitment gallery to help plan out your next build!

Both the Mitsubishi Evo and Subaru Wrx STI have been around longer than some of us can remember and that leaves a lot of room for History to take place. Today, Alex takes the stand and tests the drivability of the Evo and STI, compares the two and overall decides what car is the best one to choose.

I diddnt realize people tend to dislike the rear of the evo. I have always thought it looks really good

[saiyan_evox]

I’d like to own an STI as well but being the only Evo owner in town compare to the 16 WRX’s I see on the daily (legitimately), feels pretty damn unique lol

[villiannewyork]

Am I the only one who wouldn't mind owning either?

[Pallidus_Rider]

Why did you hide your address? Worried we would all make it a burnout spot 😂

Hardcore track junkie? answer is evo. Looking for a more civilized daily?answer is STI. Of course you can get evo level handling out STI, but definitely need more aftermarket mods bc they are set up from factory to under steer more. As far as straight line performance go, you know the story, both needs to be tuned but they both definitely have equally strong aftermarket support. And as far as the interior goes, both are garbage with STI being slightly less garbage. Coming from a VA STI owner!

I have a 2015 evo and my wife has a 2018 sti. Both of us have thing that we love more about the other car. Seating, shift feel, ECT. They are both amazing, even though they are both currently stock for now!

I don't even care about the cars. Alex's house is ballin'

Also Evo IX 👌

17:17 "we're car enthusiasts, we purposely make things less reliable."


this got me screaming HAAHAHAH its funny yet true

[WickedFlameMaster]

I think Alex nailed it with why we remember EVOs so fondly and why their community will continue to stay strong.

Being from New England everyday on the road I see at least 3-4 WRX's and know multiple buddies with WRX's, to me they are outplayed and I would take an evo

[VoxGav-bdrc]

Rather have an Evo but I’m cool with the Sti/WRX

[konos-p]

I daily my Evo X.
After figuring out and solving my clutch and clutch master cylinder issues, this thing has been an champ. Running on FA500s and Enkei Rpf01s. It's a direct, sporty feeling. The gear ratio is so short that around town you're always under boost unless you're in 4th.

I own a 2010 Evo X FQ-330. and i gotta say the AYC System is amazing and makes the car feel like nothing else i've ever owned... when it works, theyre notorious for failing. In the UK Sti's are everywhere but Evo's i've only seen 2 others in my area. Yes there isnt many of us, but everyone i know wants one

[CrazennCajunn]

I think The EVO just has that charm of being somewhat rare and no longer produced. There is one EVO 10 on my base for the like 20 STIs

Always a Mitsubishi guy at heart. Sad to see where the brand has gone but the evo IX is my favorite!
