Comparing the 2008 Subaru WRX STi and Lancer Evo X (Video)

For ages, these two companies have been pit against one another. With each successive generation of their rally-inspired road car, we’ve seen countless fanboys on both sides of fence loudly proclaim why their car of choice is superior. The newest generation of both the Lancer Evolution and the WRX STi have now arrived, so it’s only fitting that we pit these age old rivals against one another to determine who is superior once and for all.

It’s a bit of a strange comparison, because the two vehicles take on different body shapes. The Lancer Evo X is a sports sedan, whereas the Subaru WRX STi is a wagon. How will this affect the results of this comparison? You’ll have to watch this vid from Inside Line to find out.

The comprehensive comparison takes a look at everything from creature comforts to driving impressions, as well as the realities of price and performance.
