Question family car

ok, well me and my fiance are getting married this summer and so I am getting a car that is a lil more suiting for a family without totally sacrificing my need for a fast/modified car...cars i'm considering are a subaru used wrx and doing some mods right away, a used Subaru WRX STI or a used Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII (the mr is a lil pricey still)... so what do you think let me know between the 3 what would you get...thanks

I really think ya'll would be better off with something non-turbo for the long haul. Like a mazda 6 or something.

I didnt think I would be until after I got married either.

But I learned the hard way that keeping the daily family car and the RACE car seperate is better than trying to make one car do both...

No problem. I figured since I was in the same situation as you (married no children plans for no children for a while). That I'd give my experience so far.

I'd say out of the two cars that the evo will prob be the better buy
