| Hi
No question the Evo is the better car. I have had an E4, 2 E5s, an E6, and 2 E7s and one Impreza Sti. Sounds flash...sorry ...I'm in the motor trade & we used to import them and you won't find a better road car than an Evo.
The Impreza is easier to find & is a slightly more intuitive car to drive from day1 but once you get to grips with the Evo its better.... not unlike comparing a blade to a 99*.
The Evo to buy is the GSR, which will be better spec'd & have AYC. This needs a fluids change every 4500 miles & costs about £90 at a main dealer. The clutches are rubbish & need care and you must NEVER rest your foot on the brakes at junctions ..... instant brake judder follows. Despite all that, it is absolutely the best fun you can have in a car.... and remember Impreza STis are prone to losing the rear cylinder.
Its no substitute for a Duke though! |
