I love the quote about the Evo being suitable for a 'gymkhana'. Spec C all the way!

Well after all theese years of debate between Subaru Vs Evo it is finally over

i think that just about wraps it up folks Scoobies are great (especially Spec C's) and EVO's are crap - dont ask me just ask the proffesionals


Game over!

Good video.

Not as much difference between the new STi and the Spec C as I thought there would be actually.

whispers......evo was quickest though at 24.91 to spec-c at 25.16

quite intersting that they find the evo back end light at higher speeds , as I find the evo9 less planted than the sti05

How dare you!!!! hint at it being biased you should be expelled from Scoobynet . For me the Scooby and the Evo are the most closely matched cars ever. Can you think of another two cars from different manufacturers (not associated) that are so similar.

I thought there would be a huge difference between the Spec C and normal JDM STI. TBH, all the cars were quick round that course.
I always wondered how an Evo would compare to a Spec C and now I know

I've been telling you *guys for years now, as I've been in Japan for years, that, in Japan at least, the Scoob outguns the evo time and time again.
The watered down scoob you get over there may be a different story but here the evo is second best in every review.
Conspiracy?? I don't think so!! Fuji Heavy are much less powerful than Mitsu.
Magazine, TV, internet and News paper reviews have Scoob winning every time.
Why not in the UK???

Coolangatta.

*Not Scoobynet but the general scoob public in the UK.
