Does anyone have experience with these two cars or the manufactures? I'm not too familiar with either. I've been reading reviews online, but they are pretty sparse with useful information. They mostly seem to talk about the specs, which is something I can look up on my own. I'm more interested in peoples experiences who own the cars. Comfort, reliability, cost of repairs etc. Any help would be appreciated.
From what I've heard from Lancer Ralliart/Evo owners, the transmissions are flaky as hell. They spend a lot of time in the shop, and Mitsubishi expects 50% of new transmissions to fail. I've never heard a complaint from Subaru owners.
