Mitsubishi Evo X FQ360 vs Subaru Impreza WRX STi  

I love the way that guy drove the subaru

4:52 Exactly how Takumi would have done it.

Every now and again I keep coming back to this video just to see Jason drifting that Subaru! So satisfying to watch!

Kind of dumb they had an automatic Evo.

I really miss tiff vs Jason they did some of the best things on Fifth gear

4:48 initial d like overtake haha

I like Evo X and Subaru.. the Evo should have been manual

The DCT470 is 2 separate 3 speed manual transmissions in one housing that pre selects the next gear by throttle position, brake position and RPM momemtum and changes gears using 2 separate hydroelectronically controlled CLUTCHES, not a torque convertor on an automatic transmission. Every MR video on RU-vid is peppered with comments saying "why auto" or "5 speed is better" but the reality of it is that the TC-SST was the pinnacle of the Evo X and there isn't one situation where pushing a clutch in manually and shifting manually is better. On the same track, the MR beats the GSR by 1 sec or more and that is just cold, hard facts kids. A GSR runs at 90 mph @ 3800 RPM, the MR at the same speed runs at 3200 RPM. There are no situations that the 5 speed is better other than the cost of ownership, which is subjective.

Ive never seen anyone drive a sti this good before holy shit

Mitsubishi pushed the dual-clutch automatic gearbox so hard, lots of people didn't know the Evo X came with anything else. And I really felt like I had *settled* when I got mine with a 5-speed. The more I hear from dual-clutch owners and see videos like this, the more I like my 5-speed.

4:52 Holy crap that was a clean drift!!!!!!!!!

Omg evo almost did a 180° and still caught it back ...now that rally driving

It's too bad that a company as massive as Mitsubishi can't manage to build anything interesting.. The Evo was definitely an achievement, but I can't help but think they could have done better. Considering how little R&D time they seemed to spend on the rest of their line

Thats impressive hes drifting the sti! Pretty good driving :)

Got to love this old battle. Now Subaru needs to step it up with the Ford Focus RS and Audi RS3 being such awesome contenders.

Love his driving skills in the Subaru

when your feeling your best watch one of these, certainly helps 😀👍

This was years ago before @lovecars episode of Subie vs Evo. Tiff still prefers Evo's until this day xD Manual Evo that is

4:49 When the Eurobeat kicks too hard

Why Cant We Americans have Driving Shows like this? These guys are awesome I mean fucking Awesome. What a bold ass move in the Subi. Wow I was on the edge of my seat. I love this Show.

Damn.....I want to drive like that Subaru driver

The GSR in EVO X GSR stands for "Grand Sport Rally" that's all I want to say about manuall version. I have one it's awesome. Evo all day!

STI vs Evo is a real battle all of time !!! I hope some day Mitsubishi will produce an Evo again.

Why not put the mit in manual mode for the first test

04:54 Nani !? Kansei Dorifto !!??

4:51 Ive never seen plato's "ooh fuck" face haha

Impressive driving skills!

The people who play with these things, tell me the Scooby-doo is a fairly nice car when you turn up the boost a bit, but the EVO-10 is a work of art. As standard cars, they're fairly close, but if you spend the same ten grand (or eight or whatever) on go fast stuff, particularly if you mostly just up the boost, the EVO is an absolute gem. You can double the hp and it continues to work exactly the same as the standard car. If you think that's normal for tuned cars (or bikes) then you haven't done much tuning....

Ooh, it was an Awesome Race between Mitsubishi Evo X against Subaru WRX

4:52 reminds me the time I drifted my moms 2001 renault laguna 1.9 dci on a steep downhill course in heavy rain. Passed a car just like that mid corner cuz I was hurrying home

i miss the Evos :(

which is ever car is better aside, driving them like that looks so much fun!!!

handbrake turn on an auto, can u just put it to neutral -> turn -> D/M and go right away?

Which one is faster ? Subaru and evo?

why not manual evo ?

I hated the Evo;s auto gearbox. It's good when you're doing track style driving, but a pita otherwise. I had the STI that came after this one and that was just a joy to drive.

why are these videos always terrible quality and so dark.

1:38 that laugh :D

I never thought I'd say it but fifth gear is now better than topgear

Series and episode?

It couldn't be a British car show without rain.

way u not using a manual vs a manual ????????????????????????

Subie looked a lot more fun! XD

Plato going dafty just like in touring cars!

*Evo Everyday* But seriously, why get an automatic evo?

Gotta have the evo x now.. soon.

Evo has launch control last I checked but ya know

that short sti is dope

Why would you use an automatic evo? That's not even an actual match up. Evos do have a 5 speed option.

Damn I love Subaru sti

The only thing fifth gear did better than prime top gear was the fact they had actual good drivers

gr8 video but unfair for the evo it has to be manual to

It only depends on who's behind the wheel

They never made an fq360 in the sst. Its a 300 or 330.

I seen this when it was on tv

why these guys are not in the new top gear

Both are Dream cars

you should use the paddle shifter

Automatic vs Manual, Sedan vs Hatchback. Not a fair match

I understand people complaining about the Evo being auto and it's unfair to compete against a manual subaru but what people need to understand also is that the Evo in this video is a FQ400 and the Subaru is a standard STI. This is also an unfair matchup. The FQ400 is a more powerful and expensive version of the standard evo and to be fair it had to be competed against a similar customised version of the subaru, which is the S series. So all in all it was somehow a fair battle.

The Evo seems a very focusing car.. wow

Castle Combe surface is a low grade tarmac - no wonder they are slipping all over the shop.

I love this

We all know the driver on the EVO is a Subaru fan... the real comparison is on top gear

The EVO should of been a manual to make it even

he just overtook that evo initial D style haha

I like both cars

Crazy driving...

STI WON AGAIN! BRAAVO!

mitsubishi's ayc is best, but mated to an auto gearbox? not a fair competition

I love Impreza coz of performance and technology but Evo win for interior and exterior design..

Subaru strong at pulling and offroad but Mitsubishi very good at highway

4:58 ohoho~ fork

2:37 EVO OWNERS BE LIKE

Evo still the best track car even though the handbrake turn was a mess.

Subies will still have the most love. and I bet that evo couldn't take the subie on a dirt track

Where's mazda?

водила на субару красавчик )

Surely the Subaru has 300 ft lbs not 300nm no? My STi had 305hp and 295ft lbs/400nm

I think u should use the evo 9 instead of the evo 10

3:08 -3:11 Kermit the frog would be proud 😭😭😭

Почему кузова разные?

Co to za nędzna podróba top geara?

Y’all just had to choose the STI before the body kit, huh 🤦🏻‍♂️

Before buying my car I got to drive an Evo X and a 2011 WRX STI sedan. While the Evo was fun I didn't like the feel of the 5 speed. Also, the suspension made a loud bang when you stamp the brakes at low speed. The STI was great on the other hand. The turbo spool and recirc sound was quiet but the exhaust note was amazing. They were both used but the STI had lower miles and was stock. It cost more but I went with the Subie and don't regret it for a single day. I still like Evos but my heart lies with the 6 stars.

Are you sure it's an FQ360? I thought they only came with a 5 speed manual.

I'm conclusion everyone!.. dont use an auto vs. stick in this type of test 👌

When you're a car show presenter but don't know the car has launch control...

Automatic FQ360?, thought they were all manual.

could've got the stick Evo X

My friend owns that impretza

fq360 is manual only as far as i know and destroys stock scoobies, this is either the 300/330sst, i would guess the 300.

just for Jason's overtake I vote the sti the better car. cars like this should make their drivers pull off crazy feats and that one proves it's rally upbringing.

Manual Evo would have murdered the Imprezza.. Great cars though

Bring back Fifth Gear, I need a proper car show not some over scripted gimmicky horse shit.

اكووو عرب بطيارة 2020 👍😍😷✌️

Skill are worthed...

change drivers and try it again

It’s an automatic (paddles right next to his fingers)
