I haven't been in an Evo yet, only at the Autoshow. My preference on the Evo interior is that it's my kind of 'food' I guess I could say. It's not too ugly, not too nice. It's nice, simple and to the point. I've heard from many that it is cheap though.

My friend has a 02 WRX turbo (not an STi), the engine itself is the most solid engine I've ever seen. I've seen and been in what kind of abuse it has taken. The only issue with it was the transmission after that abuse, which isn't surprising. Interior-wise, my galant has more room. I can actually "lay" back in my car, whereas in the WRX, I was only at a sitting position, close to about a 100 degree when sitting. The WRX as a four door car, I'm expecting some more leg room but I don't, whenever I go sit in the rear of my car, I have room for my legs to breathe.

I'd much prefer the Evo because they're more easy to modify, tune and do simple maintainences. The interior is more of my style, even though it may be cheap(dash). As for the WRX STi, to me, it feels like a regular WRX with STi stickers and the engine.
