That's exactly it. I needed a reliable car for this winter. As far as the Evo X, reports seem to indicate that it won't be quite as "edgy" as the current gen Evo. It'll be somewhat more tame. I went with the STi because it's a blast to drive, it's easier, cheaper, and more relable to mod (than the 8), and from what I've read on the forums, the STi is a solid, reliable car. Apparently, the Evo needs it's tires and clutch replaced more often than normal. Overall, I'm ecstatic about the purchase. I feel like I didn;t sacrifice anything in the handling dept. but gained tremendously in the power, reliability, and even practicality dept. Again, nothing against the 8, it'll always have a special place in my heart, but the STi is just a blast!
