top gear-impezza vs lancer

[swat305GINO]

Lancer ftw

[sebipsss]

evo a fun car, sti a performance car

[swat305GINO]

@sebipsss You sound like you're nine. You mean the evo is a fun car to drive, and the sti is a performance car. that still doesn't make sense the forced induction lancer is a performance car to its something the transporter would drive :)

[Ri0tassassin]

yea the best subaru vs. the less powerful version of the evo

so yea the beter evo would have owned the subaru but since subaru has never won anything they felt that they should get them a lil advantage so intern the subaru would have lost

[Infmda488]

They're both amazing cars. I've got a '09 Rex, I thought it handled better with better acceleration (the mitsu was amazing) but the Evo/Ralliart looks way, way better!!! It's personnel preference.

[Lawlerization]

mMMmmmmMMm... impretzle

[45Mang]

the new subaru hatchbacks are nasty.

[DrouQC]

evo gsr or mr?

[Davide25084]

impezza??!?!?!?

[MetallicWarrior55]

For those that don't know, the time for the evo was 1:28.2, the same as the subaru.

[shinobi594]

@MetallicWarrior55 The Evo was 1:28.22 and the STi was 1:28.20

[MetallicWarrior55]

@shinobi594 whoops my bad

[dEfENdEr998]

Can Anybody PLEASE Tell Me The Season And The Episode..? PLEASE

[max22g]

[m4sabonim]

@max22g subaru everything is just tighter feeling....the evo feels like a civic

[dragaonegro84]

@max22g by evolution its a car for life...

[max22g]

@dragaonegro84 Hey Bro, I ended up buying Red EVo X.. and i am loving it....

[drummer835]

They would pick the dumbest color for the STi. why dont the pick a better color. it would make it look a lot better.

[kkhadim34]

i feel it's not an sti

where are the 4 exhaust tips and 18inch wheels !!!

[abo3thman]

@kkhadim34

this STi is premuim it dosn't have alot of options ..

but there are 4 exhaust tips

[davbhard]

I had an EVO VIII, But I like my '06 STI better. (I don't like how the hatchback looks, But the sedan STI's look good)

[LFS2008]

sti and evo are all the way

[slepchor]

anyone plz which episode is this????

[peterfarrow]

LOL after all that top gear turd polishing of the EVO it got beaten by the STi.

No suprise Mitsubishi couldn't win rallys in any great number....

No suprise Mitsubishi pulled out of rallying in 2006 because they could beat Subaru.

The Evo looks like a Renault Laguna in drag.

[BolgOfTheNorth]

@peterfarrow No Mitsubishi didn't win many rallys did they, oh apart from the 4 consecutive world championships with a group N rally car which is just a modified road car which Subaru couldn't beat with a purpose built world rally car as opposed to Subaru's 3 world championships.

[peterfarrow]

@BolgOfTheNorth

No your wrong you are confusing drivers championships with manufacturers championships. Mitsubishi did not ever win four consecutive Manufacturers championships. Where the manufacturer wins are counted Subaru outclassed Mitsubishi three to one, which by any many measure is trounced or in laymans terms subaru totally outclassed mitsubishi in Group N. In fact mitsubishi only ever won it once, beaten by Citrtoen, Ford, Subaru and Peugeot meaning Mitsubishi came last.

[BolgOfTheNorth]

@peterfarrow I'm not wrong because I didn't say they won the constructors 4 times, I was obviously referring to the drivers championship so your comment implying Mitsubishi werent successful at rallying is bull shit.

If anyone is wrong it's you thinking the Evo looks like a Laguna...a Laguna! really? Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and all that but Jesus Christ the Impreza looks awful, whenever I see them I always think its some cheap Korean piece of crap while the Evo 10 looks awesome.

[kitikitiboy]

the current sti is so ugly no offense....good thing they're bringing back the sedan much better looking 2011 sti very nice,,,,, but im still choosing evo over sti.......

[Cfigginslz]

"obviously, of course, the evo's better as i've said" haha

[wrxlauncher]

so did the subaru get a faster lap time then the evo? the subaru got 1:28 but then it sounds like jeremy is sayin 1:22 for the evo. im consufed

[laborantiazzurro]

@wrxlauncher i think Jeremy said 1.2?.2, maybe the same as the Subaru or a second slower, which i doubt because these cars have always been the same... obviously, acting or not, jeremy personally likes more the Evo

[Libertford]

@wrxlauncher I believe he said 1:28:22

[niki1371]

i just love when subaru proofes everybody wrong

[freddyway]

@niki1371 and i love how you cant write proof lol

[TheXela79]

Subaru's are way better in a off road course the Evo would be stuck the whole time cos of the "asymmetrical awd system" lol

[Deviltrigger808]

Get these cars off the tarmac and throw em in the dirt for some real tests where they belong.

[brumster01]

Theres no such thing as a Evo 9 FQ400 that was only in the Evo 8 lol

[hedgehog547]

well u dont know have they ever put 400 horsepower in a subaru even though evos have always been better

[TheXela79]

@hedgehog547

Bull, Subaru's are way better did you know Mitsubishi always cheaper than Subaru. I agree with Deviltrigger808 they should put those on a off road track the Evo would be stuck because of the speed differentials lol

[laborantiazzurro]

@hedgehog547 there is a 580Hp and 611 lb/ft Impreza STi, Gymkhana 2 tuned by Crawford Performance. now imagine what a even crazier tuner would make out of a STi

[4ormonamy]

You've got to admit though, The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 9 MR FQ 400 is better than any subaru ever made.

[202free]

@4ormonamy they only made a fq360 evo 9 it was the evo 8 that was an fq400

[lilmossy1]

test drove both.. love the impreza, and the lancer in the same price range is fwd

[brumster01]

Why do they compare the fastest Evo against the base model STI then say the Evo is better, well obviously , now thats a fair race at the end with the same horses , would kill for either of them cars

[zeroflat24]

@brumster01 i agree. if they are going to put the top of the line evo against an STi it should be a Spec C- Type RA-R  OR a Litchfield Type25. in either case, im fairly certain the Subaru would likely come out on top.

[ItsCricky]

@brumster01

You take an FQ-400 Lancer and it will runs circles around any car Subaru has ever made. I'm pretty sure thats not the base model Subbie either.

[441meatloaf]

@ItsCricky

it is the base model.

[27topgear]

subaru imprzea rocks so much better than an evo for me :D

[nirtime]

STI all the way

[FEGTTTSDH]

haha subaru ROCKS

[borladyno]

subaru did a 1:28.2

evo x did a 1:28.22

haha get the subaru you wont regret it

[mjenabi2]

@borladyno tbh, for the money, the evo is just extortion!

[cstrikeplaya]

@borladyno just to let you know, he tested the slower version of the evo :D!

[davelex08]

i love my hatchback wrx....the evo is cool also but, just loved the look of my subie and love shocking the shit out of rednecks in mustangs and camaro's. This car just looks like a typical hatch to idiots who dont know any better.

[SierraHawkProduction]

im sorry, but if you watch the clips earlier the MR beats the Subaru big time.... he used the less powerful model thats why it went slower. and subaru is UGLY!!!!

[borladyno]

so whats your point of course they have to make an even comparison thats why he used the less powerul version

[mjenabi2]

@borladyno because if you take the most expensive version, it will be a rival to the GTR rather than the STI, and any how, they both have same 300 bhp

[AceGuitarR7]

yeh i gotta say i was allways against hatchbacks and perhaps thats why i didnt like the subaru at first but its definatly growing on me. my mates have a few hatchbacks and damn they corner well. and as a plus its cheaper then the evo.

[ghrb30]

Evo 9 over all!!

[TSBludenzF35]

ohh the subarus faster. fuck mitsu

[crazyglyde18]

the evo kills. the subaru looks like a soccer mom car

[TSBludenzF35]

and the Evo look like your mother. UGLY

[ebadebay]

@crazyglyde18 have you seen the new STI in real life?For a htachback it looks nothing like a soccer mom car. If thats your impression of a soccer mom car can i meet your mom please? and the New evo's looks ugly as fuck.

[crazyglyde18]

@ebadebay not only have i seen it in real life i've driven it and it sucks compares to the evo. but hey, if your into fat ugly things, go for it. i wont stop you :)

[rallylover00]

none of these cars would have any issues with understeer if they learned how to pitch them.

and the new hatchback subies look fine. they dont look like the early 2000s. those looked terrible!!

[Weazell]

Not sure what everyone's issue with the hatchbacks are, I think they're the best looking subies to date

[kxjack]

@rallylover I'm going to buy Subaru but i'm really afraid about understeer i hate it, may you explane how to avoid it is just a matter of driving skills or is about setting the car ?

[rallylover00]

well understeer isnt really an issue unless your legitimently racing, but adding power to push the car through the corner can help. also, like i said pitching a car can help get through a corner. but if you wanted to fix understeer youd need it done professionally

[kxjack]

On my BMW i put the M3 setup , and is perfect , i just press brakes a littel to insert car in the corners with more precison thanks to weight moving and then go on the trottle and control the car by it and stear,

what i don't like at all is a car whit understeer in the muddel of corner and in the exit, i'm so used to drive a RWD car.

[rallylover00]

well sti's have differential so you can put most of the power in the back too

[kxjack]

@rallylover; So this way i can have a car that works as a RWD , i mean i more used to control oversteer that's why i was so concerned , do you think it can be a good car for me or should i still have another BMW price of 200hp is same.

I like it so much.

[rallylover00]

well you can put most of the power to the back but its never completely RWD. personally i love the sti. its great on snow and still pretty easy to pitch. but its all personal preference. maybe you should go test drive an sti to feel it then make your decision

[kxjack]

Thanks so much rallylover , you really helped me so much and by yours words i understand that we both have passion of driving.

Next week i will go to Subaru dealer my goal this year is have an STI.

[rallylover00]

no problem. maybe then we'll race it up!! but i only have a wrx lol but still

[kxjack]

I would love to race whit you problem is that i can't moderate myslef so it could end quite bad for my new STI how it will look after being smashed against something ?? :)

[rallylover00]

haha lol =)

[Carnaby509]

MITSUBISHI 4EVER!!!!

[HotGritz910]

I'd still pick an evo 8 over the both of them.. I think the wrx is a better everyday car though...

[luvmakesasubaru]

I don't care what people praise about the Evo's new styling and how the new styling for the Impreza's too conservative. To me, the impreza has finally grown up. <3

SUBARU FOREVER!!!

[dawky101]

evo5 for me

[buzzingbee25]

its has always been (and still is) so hard to choose between these  two cars. both are awesome. If I had the money , i would buy both ;-)

[samehxman]

subaru 4 ever

[bunz559]

it's sad that the united states cars do not put out those numbers. i believe the highest power output we have is the 300 right? 360hp is monstrous!!

[Chris801220]

Hey, the new Subaru is so ugly that I can not even look out, sorry.

The new lancer it´s O.K. but this is only my opinion. Peace

[john0022]

Does anyone know where the full video of these two cars are on youtube, where they review these two cars in full??

[carlitosespejo93]

thts only on the rally of stock cars because there you can use electronicks mods,in the REAL rally lancer never apears in the first 10

[carlitosespejo93]

the subaru is underestimate,because a lot of people say that the evo is beter but the subaru allways win the evo in rally and in the road too becouse it has a lower gravity center and is ligther,look it in the rally pages,and it is not ugly

[swat305GINO]

@carlitosespejo93 Both are good I like the Lancer body style tho

[davelex08]

I love my STI, the EVO is awesome as well but just liked the Subby better, each his own..

[TroVirus]

did subaru make an STI version of the sedan?

[Lohman1464]

yes

[FreiherrvonWeilberg]

lets hope so because the hatchback is pretty ugly! i liked the old one better!

[DRFTmonkeh]

no they didnt. there isnt an STI version of the GRB sedan.  im pretty sure theres a WRX version but def not STI.

[luvmakesasubaru]

NO. They stoped w/ the jet eyes sedan back in 07, when the spec. C and spec. C type RA-R came out.

[leabuelo]

for this gen

no

[DrJCCC20]

kinda odd. blue evo and red subie. usually the opposite in WRC

[OOLWprufKW]

Subaru finally made its' Impreza faster than EVO:)) Or Mitsubishi wanted to step out of it's racing in the past so badly that it lost all the madness previous generations had...

[john0022]

Where's the car test video for these car subaru wrx and mitsubishi evo 10?

[OMFGaUnicorn]

the lancer looks like a shark.

The subby is a really coordinated/fast retard.

[matt37075]

idk maybe

[matt37075]

idk maybe

[strokeskid45]

Yes.

[strokeskid45]

Yes.

[Arabmaffia]

jeremy clarkson chats the most shit

[LordAbraxesDark]

LOL...this vid actually started a fight between my younger brother and I, he has an Impreza, and i got the Evo X =P.

We´ve puttin em down on an airfield, and in the 1/4 the Impreza STi atually made 10"034 and the Evo made 11"021 BUT on the 1/2 mile the Impreza made 19"083 VS 17"894 on the Evo X.

Both are 99% stock except from the Injen CAI´s on each one :P

Keep it cool and keep it on the track!

[RenaultSport133]

Bullshit

[22bst]

STI 10sec 1/4?? 99% stock?? yeah right..

[anonazero]

thats a big one percent.

[JettaGolfGLiGTi]

Woooow, theSubau actually won. Thats what happens when you even out the horsepower.

[CoNMaN313]

Is the video of them mucking about on the track on youtube or not? This is all i can find.

[khontamentiu]

well...1:28:20 vs 1:28:22 is not a big deal....so....all hail the EVO! =)

[Gorax90]

Evo is only good if you can't drive. Active yaw control really does suck. Get rid of that, then we'll see which is the better car.

[USAsiaEU]

It is an unexpected result.

[makemefull]

no.

[AndrewSergeev]

Subaru WRX STI looks like Daewoo Nexia hatchback with some agressive styling)))

[makemefull]

no.

[m0mbuster]

lancer has a very beautifull front...

[davidhillstrom]

the new evo is one of the worst looking cars its front end is made of plastic

[JohnnyLawless89]

i disagree, i hate the new body style of the sti. hatchback just doesn't fit that car in my opinion. but at least it's got power

[LordAbraxesDark]

Its ABS class 8 High Density, PvC/Fiberglass alloy -.-.....and you can change it for a carbon fiber sold at the dealer... *Slaps u*

[albikavo]

I think it was the same time.

[kbrinks]

The video did look like the lancer was faster but it's still just video.

[rangerover06sc]

yes the subaru finally wins something

[freakardoocio]

16:9 rocks!

[Tippey764]

I know your talking about screen aspect rations and your wrong

[rockkyman]

more power but heavy car means nothing

less power but very, very light car means everything

don't judge these cars by its performance, but by practicality coz people buy car does not always on the track most of the cars are on the open road

EVO X is a bit harder then the STI not too great for the daily road but STI is very soft and a bit more comfortable then the EVO X and STI a bit spacious then EVO X

[GalmTeamLeader]

-_-

...why didn't they test the MR?

[palpullero]

If that was the 6-speed one ("6-speed gear box"), then it had to have been the MR. That would also explain the launch noise of the EVO X.

[GalmTeamLeader]

So why did they say it was the less powerful model?

Maybe the Evo X GSR has different specs in the US model and the UK model.

[palpullero]

Because it was the FQ300 (~300HP to be fair to the STI's 305HP). The FQ360 and FQ400 are not imported to he US.

[GalmTeamLeader]

Oh... Ok.

[DJohnsonDB20]

that subie made alot of noise they need a sedan STi model so at least subie looks better lol

[DJohnsonDB20]

yeah the evo is fast but they both beast so dont talk stuff lol......i like the impreza line up better but that new evo looks so much better thats the only evo i would take over a STi. (unless they come out with a sedan then back 2 subies lol)
