Wait until BMWs will get the dynamic/intelligent AWD to move in on the Evo's "yaw dance", oh and a semi-auto too.

E90 is looking good, particulary the front, its only the rearlights that is a letdown. Hopefully a facelift will fix that problem.

I know I'm naging on about this, but the M-sport erally makes the 3-series shine. I hope the FL gets the tail lights in order.

Re: Automobile Mag (April 2008): Evo vs Sti vs 335xi

Style-wise, I think even the pre-FL E90 has those other two comfortably covered.

Fair enough Guibo - I'll go along with that.

Have you seen a new STI in the metal, however? Hmmm, not altogether stylish but heck it's got loads of road presence.

Re: Automobile Mag (April 2008): Evo vs Sti vs 335xi

Its dissapointing that only the UK gets the real evo's worth owning. The FQ series no doubt would have dominated this test for the same money as the beemer.

Re: Automobile Mag (April 2008): Evo vs Sti vs 335xi

I like the Evo more than the Sti to be honest. The Evo is so agressive looking. That front end does it for me while the rear end of the Sti kills it. I hate those tailights.

Re: Automobile Mag (April 2008): Evo vs Sti vs 335xi

How come these AWD cars don't have their engine hanging ahead of the front axle or suffer from chronic understeering the way a Audi does?

Indeed I have, at a car show. I have seen the standard WRX on the road, and I actually quite like it. Much better in person than in pictures. More my style, though, is the Legacy:
