It will be, and the Evo MR will still be at least high 20's used in a couple years.

That sucks. Original rumors were saying 250-260hp. I bet it will out-handle the new WRX with it's increased body roll and the same crappy RE92 all seasons it's been wearing since 2002 . But in a straight line it looks like it will be neck and neck considering it will weigh nearly the same as the Evo.

Subaru is no longer interested in the pocket rocket circus. Hence the more pedestrian WRX approach. Even the Subaru spokesperson pointed to the large after market support for any spicing up of the WRX.

Ah, I didn't know they were changing it-What I get for basing it off previous models.

But I gotta say...those pictures are ugly! I like my model quite a bit better. Does't look so...constipated.

I was driving around last night late night with my girlfriend and stopped into a mits dealer while they were closed bc I havent had a chance to check out the new evo. Man, that is a nice car, I personally like it. I would def recommend it haha.
