and as for modding well once you mod any car you loose reliability regardless...
and im betting that if you do an age pole on nasioc, iwsti or club wrx that the majority of people owning stis are over the age of 28
each car has its downfall and i do agree theres a lot more high hp evos but hasnt the 4g63 been around for around 20years? so yea theyve had plenty of time to know what makes it go fast
apples and oranges
No one has come out and said "Car X is better than Car Y in every way possible", but virtually every post in this thread is about how the STi is better here or the Evo is better there. And a lot of it is either subjective, or posted based on limited information/guesses.
You can speculate all you want as to the average age of either community, but its just that - speculation. Likewise, you can say Evos are less reliable, but do you know the maintenance histories of every Evo and STi in Tampa? Florida? The Southeast? The nation? You can say you dont see as many built STis as Evos, but do you know the setup of every STi and Evo owner in Tampa? Florida? See where Im going with this?
Apples to oranges? Id say its more like Granny Smith vs. Golden Delicious
