The Players
Last year, Subaru's Impreza WRX STi outgunned the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution with more horsepower, a more sophisticated driveline, and a higher level of polish. For 2005, Mitsu fires back with a special Evo MR Edition ($34,900 est) to take on a revised 2005 STi ($32,770).
The Game
Two fierce competitors in World Rally Championship racing bring their best-yet hardware (and software) to the streets of the USA. We took both competition-derived production cars to the dyno shop and the racetrack to see which would first cry "uncle."
