I got bored, so I bought an EVO VI and tuned it as high as possible (593hp). Topped 350 kph. Then I left it in my garage and now I only take it out for the hell of it
 
i'm not sure which one i have, it's the most expensive production model.
it's pretty nice, the wheels are WAY too small, doens't need 4 doors, handles like a brick, and really doesn't have that much go.
but, it's ok.

The Mitsubish Lancer EVO slid around a bit, it was a bit harder to get control of it because if it's oversteering characteristics (AYC, Active Yaw Control). Overall it had good Yaw angle coming out of turns.

The Impreza on the other hand was not as tail happy but had a good amount of grip in turns. It like was glued to the pavement! It didn't handle like the EVO where it would slide around. Overall, it had excellent grip in turns.

I'd say the Impreza has a more predictable handling behavior. The EVO on the other hand slides a bit. The EVO would make a excellent drifter car.
