    Switching Sides

    Ok, I still have my Evo VIII and do not plan to sell it, however...

    I just ordered a 2022 Subaru Outback Touring XT for me and a 2022 Subaru Legacy Touring XT for the Mrs. My Outback is due to arrive 2 days after my birthday in June.

    Um, no. Mitsubishi abandoned the Evo and 4G63. They have nothing to offer now as far as I'm concerned.

    My mom still has her Outlander.

    We Brought it for service 4 weeks ago or so, and I must say the New Outlander line are not too bad.

    They are also releasing a Ralliart variant of it.

    Would I pick one up? I would need to do my homework first if I am looking at SUVs. But on top of my list would be the Explorer ST and the Blazer.

    AS EVO X
    I did this towards the end of 2021. Except I bought a 2021 STI and bought my wife a 2021 Forester Sport. I still have my X.

    When my X got rear-ended by a FrieghtLiner, I just can't pull the trigger on the STI as a replacement.

    Pride? Maybe. I liked the STI but would prefer to go back on a Evo if i was able to find one within my standard.

    I was looking at the Kia Stinger GT2, but it did not feel close to the Evo.

    I ended up getting a 2018 Focus RS Limited Edition.

    What is your standard? I might know of a very clean GSR in the $30k range.

    Let me think about that.

    I thought you plan to keep your Evo?

    I know UltraFlip has a X stashed with ultra low miles as well.

    If I sold my evo, my wife would get the outback, I'd cancel the legacy and order a C8 Corvette
