Wish we had the evo wagon in the states.
Gears and Gasoline hey G&G you rock !
we don't need that evo wagon. the US used market is filled with cars that have more power and cost less, and some of them are even wagons.
love your videos by the way.
That's weird. I've seen 3 Evo wagons so far n in the states.
would have been discontinued by now anyway.
Mitsubishi *what* were you thinking when you designed the back of the Evo wagon...
statesidesupercars Im assumings the wrx wagon
statesidesupercars I kinda like it
statesidesupercars I like it
its coz its part still a mitsi cedia
They made it perfect
The big difference , The Forester is a great 4WD vehicule and the engine and exhaust sound are music for the ears
And the engine is chocolate.
I believe the main reason for the Boxer rumble is the unequal length headers. Also, that forester definitely has an aftermarket exhaust which amplifies it. I've been driving Subarus for the last 9 years, and love the intoxicating sound.
I wanna see them facing the Nissan Stagea. That would be very interesting ;)
Master Ed ayy
I've one they can borrow!
Yes, the Autech 260RS especially
Master Ed yep, when i see it it seems it missing stagea.
oh hell yeah !!!
Fun fact:the Forester shares the same platform as the Impreza, including the STI. Which means an STI suspension will bolt up right under it and turn it into a monster.
The forester is an more like a crossover SUV !
Konstantinos it's more of a wagon/crossover then suv.
It's 90% an Impreza chassis of the first 2 generations. Up through 2008, it's more car than anything, well wagon. Quite literally it's just the Impreza wagon with a little taller and squared roof line and a 1" subframe spacer (for geometry, not ride height). The Forester's height is all done by the struts used and nothing else. Toss on WRX struts, and it'll sit as low as a WRX. You can literally swap the vast majority of interior and exterior parts between Imprezas and Forester because it's largely the same chassis. Also if you don't get the STI version where you live, all the STI parts bolt directly on, the entire power train, suspension, and interior, including swapping the STI pretty sweeping gauges if you want. By and large, pretty much everything from 93 through 08 in the Imprezas, first gen Legacys, Foresters, and Bajas are interchangeable to a large degree. There are some small variations but far less than you'd expect.
Xmvw2X yep but I own a forester and it's a beast offroad a true beast
Konstantinos Indeed. A great offroad car even if apparently it does not look as capable as the big boys (Land Cruiser, Land Rovers etc) it surely is. If you are crazy enough you can also go with an Impreza, even though your underside will be a pottage after an offroad session, but just incredible how a small sedan can handle rough conditions. Once I've even seen a video of a completely ordinary Impreza bugeye 1.6i that was trying to make its way through a steep and very muddy path. In the video the other people were laughing because the guy tried to do that in a small sedan, but he succeded to the top.
the forester is classified as a SUV in the states
The Evo wagon eats the RS4 wagon for breakfast. There's a video of a Swedish guy testing them back to back. That thing is bonkers fast.
I *LOVE* the boxer rumble from that Forester STI.
The under steer on the forester is insane tho... That back also swings wrecklessly
Watching this i realized that indeed the sound of the STI was used for Roman’s Eclipse in 2 fast 2 furious:))
car throttle(or someone else) would you want a ae86
Yes please.
Car Throttle when will you make a list of cars on a tight budget for the US?
Car Throttle it would be great
Windows98 ill take one
Yes becaus Initial d
I personally prefer the Forester STi over the Lancer Evo...
i prefer the impreza wagon
Jens Thoelen I prefer the impreza sti fast af boi
I prefer the Koenigsegg Regera
Quinn Kirlew Always someone like you.
same but when it comes to the sedans evo any day...way faster and cheaper to build and will make more hp.
I've owned my Sti Forester for 5 years now, turbo back exhaust, no cats, dyno tuned, 202kw (270hp) at wheels with 390nm. Dropped 40mm on Tein coilovers with Prodrive wheels. Is such a beast, sounds unreal and appreciating in value.
I have a Forester STi 2 Type M with similar setup and love it
living in the states, we don't have the sti. I got a 2007 forester xt limited that is slowly making its way to sti status though. Lowering springs, rays gramlight 57dr, syms wing, wangan waist spoiler, sti intercooler, zerosports gauge pod with sti genome gauges, invidia g200 catback exhaust and many other small things. About to drop some money on a jdm sti front end conversion!
Good review, thanks. I've had an FSTI 5 years and you pretty much nailed what it's like to own and drive. Super sound, super performance, super practical and higher gearing in gears 4-6 make it more highway friendly than the Impreza it is based on. And nothing like it exists in Japan these days. Latest 'hot' sti wagon from Subaru? A 1.6l CVT with red stickers. I cry. Until I turn the key on the Forester. Cheers.
Subaru legacy spec b? Big enough for a family, quite fast and looks awesome
Great car, awful fuel economy though.
Zero Ninety yeah I guess these two also do :D
Zero Ninety well its a turbo 4 cyl its not a na civic
MysticBlack nothing wrong with na civics 🌚🌝
They're bad even for a Turbo 4 cylinder. I used to own one, that's how I know. Loved everything else about it though.
I’ve replaced my e46 330i touring with an 06 forester xt. Must say the noise and the turbo lag definitely make it fun to drive everyday. Need to save up for an FSTI next :)
Finally something with some decent cars in it. I do love a good Evo wagon I'm not going to lie
I love my 07 forester xt, swapped it to an STI short block, incredible back country car. plenty of power, with the bonus of having the sleeper status.
Yeah, this is a great test.
Pls make more of these affortable car tests and comparisions.
Forester is my dream first car
Forester is amezing car 😁
My one is making me happy :-)
I always say that the forester( SG9 2007)is my 1sr dream car too. I swear..its just so awesoma to find that there is someone wlse who thinks and dreams and desires like me.forester is just great..the frameless windows, the high speed it generates its just the thing..we will get them for sure.
What about a Volvo Estate, indestructible and reliable, just engine swap and it's a sleeper 😂😂
Bond why do you spend your life commenting on people's videos like that's all you do
Bond he haw lee mao
le iboy let Bond do his thing
why engine Swap you get 300Hp out of the T5 Engine easily
or not if you get a 940 2.3t. b230ft/fk ftw. manual boost controller, exhaust intake will get you to about 230hp at 14psi. bigger turbo and freddie chip andbmaybe some injectors and you have a 300hp rwd drift wagon
Makes me miss my 280whp Forester XT I owned! Besides the fuel economy, it was the best of everything, all bundled up in a sleeper shell.
Glad you made this video. I have a modded fxt and I absolutely love it. Mine isn't quite at 350 but I think that would be a great range.
EVO wagons are really cool mix in a GTX35 and 700hp and you are on to a winner!
Eh, I prefer keeping my cars stock.
I don't mind ads, I don't mind buffer, but when ads buffer, I suffer
NOT ORIGINAL!
Unoriginal af
I've been subscribed for a long time, and this channel has slowly became my favorite to watch everytime there's a new video. Cheers
Wagons need more love!! Thanks for making this video!
Love that Subaru sound!!
You could have included the other Mitsubishi wagon, which is the Legnum VR-4. Bigger engine, same drivetrain and power output as these ones. Plus you can get it for much cheaper!
and the engine sounds better in its way
HOW DARE YOU DISRESPECT THE LAN EVO WANGON!?! IT WAS MY OLD CAR (this is a joke)
Being a Forester owner, I would say it is a great buy. I only have the 2.5X, which is the baseline model and it is still just as fun. They are light, roomy, and who doesn't love that boxer sound?
So glad you did this there is so little content (english speaking anyway) about the Forester STi good job
that ridiculous noise from forester is just amazing
In America you can get a 1990s Buick Roadmaster wagon
Car Dynamics haahahah
You laugh, but those old roadmasters are the KING of cheap speed (straight line speed anyway, lol, they handle like a marshmallow).
That's the charm of those old Roadmasters, being the last "road boats". They're immensely fun to _try_ to chuck around corners, and just feel the roll.
@@lynnmckenney1987 lmao I think it'd be hilarious to corner it.
@@lynnmckenney1987 The 94-96 Caprice 9C1's with the LT1 actually out performed the Crown Vic in every measure. They handled, braked, accelerated better, and were more comfortable inside.
Had a Evo 9 wagon for 4 years here in New Zealand ,Best car i have ever had or driven ,reluctantly had to sell it 2 years ago ,still miss it ,not sure how much it costs to insure in the UK but here in NZ it only cost me $700 a year fully comp
Man that Forester sounds good!
You should've reviewed the Gf8 STi, literally the best looking wagon out there.
Taillights are red, hids are blue, i'd never take you over my Subaru.
Kuba Linhart jdm poetry
You should have tried a tuned legacy spec.B. Handling of wagon with the boxer rumble!
My brother has a 2008 Subaru Forester XT and just recently tuned it up to around 250 hp I believe. It is stupid quick and so much fun, we don't get Forester STI's here in North America so the XT is the closest you'll be able to get. The XT would basically be the WRX equivalent to the Forester STI.
Nice video.I think Forester is better because its suspension is softer for daily driving and its AWD system allow to have nice weekend offroading too :)
I've owned my Evo wagon for 5 years, it's dope. I'm not sure why it's not more popular? It's an Evo without a wing. Which is the only way to have an Evo since 1999.
Other great affordable power wagons; Mitsubishi Legnum VR4, Nissan Stagea Autech, MG ZT-T 260/Rover 75 Tourer V8 (both quite rare), Subaru Legacy Twin Turbo, Buick Roadmaster
I have to say the Evo Lancer Wagon is one of the sexiest ever made!! 👍 Love every video you make keep it up!
that Lancer is dope af! M5 Touring? not for me :)
Evos are stil not affordable. They are still expensive.
Purple Heart lol
Purple Heart there gonna be way more expensive now that they dont make them
Well in the States Evo IX are almost just as expensive as Evo Xs are. Well at least where I am but Evo VIIIs are pretty affordible. About 8 grand less than a IX. There are a few minor differences with interior and exterior.
In the czech republic evo IX are more expensive that the X one :D and under IX they are rare...
As an Indonesian, I find this true.
Subaru Boxer engine... awesome sound, and 4g63 of Lancer Evo... Amazing
Can confirm everything about the forester STi, absolutely awesome car. Though i drive the first model of it, a 2000 SF5 STi straight from japan.
Love the subie
I would pick an Impreza over an Evo any day purely for the boxer burble... Massive respect to both cars though!
Sam Pagett The good Subies dont burple - its only a sign that the owner bought a cheapo version without ELH's..
Mika Veijalainen you know nothing about subarus with a stupid comment like that.
The subaru impreza and Forrester range are just fabulous. The best sounds of a car ever.Fast as everything,really goods cars 👍👍👍👍👍
I got a Honda Accord type r as a practical family car and as far as cheap performance cars that can fit the whole family I'd say it's spot on
this made me miss my legnum vr4 :(
Who cares about the interiors if it's fast!
Milan Interior aren't necessary, cause weight reduction bro
Racercar drivers don't need girlfriends! Lol
Anyone with eyes. Step into an audi and then look at japanese cars and tell me what you see.
Sayuj Raphael Only cookie cutters care about interiors
wrong use of that word.
i love my forester ive fitted a td04 bigger intercooler and king springs with a 2inch lift totaly changed the driveability next steps are a set of sti pinks and fuel pump upgrade and a remap oh and 16x225x70 insa turbo dakars its gonna be so much fun in a muddy field
Ive got a 1998 gt forester and ive fallen in love with it we also got a 1996 wrx but the forester just takes the cake
Nissan Stagea? :(
the cars are affordable if you are in your early 30s
teens in Australia can afford one . £8000 is $14000 aud
there affordable in the states... you just have to work hard for what you want
Zachary Foster they're affordable anywhere, just maybe if you had paid attention in school you'd have one.
the wagon was never sold here and is a rarity same for the forester.. however i do actually own a 2018 Forester XT so don't be an asshole... i was pointing out different countries slap different prices on things... and can be super expensive in one vs another due to insurance gas/petrol etc
+Jeremy Clarkson Yeah if you studied hard enough at school somebody would easily realize that its financial genocide to own a 2.5 Subaru at 18, unless you don't want to insure it.
The EVO wagon can sound really good
Ive heard some Forester with a really deep burble
Never knew they made an evo wagon... thats like my wet dream
COULD YOU DO THE IMPREZA STI (SUBARU) PLEASE!!!!!
Still , evo looks sooooo good,and in wagon peeeeeeeeeeeeeerf
I've got a speed6 maybe only one in my town! Love the evo. I would own one but it would be old school 8 or older..
glad to see some forester love!!
such a good car i brought one 2001 sf gt turbo - $6400 = spent money on suspension steering and brakes - wrx turbo with a 3 inch exhaust 150 mph shopping wagon.
UPDATE = new engine RA STI SPEC C ej207 with auto trans and diff LSD 4.44 now we are cooking HP !
The forester isnt even a wagon, its an suv, you shouldve compared the wrx wagon with the evo wagon.
ckmkv exactly the same with what am i thinking!
ckmkv no point wrx would easily win
Lukegaming bro better get off this page am about to go crazy k
lol cause EJ is life?
HA just the answer id expect from a kid with a creeper profile picture, Evo wins everyday, and ive owned a wrx hatch and an evo
dat sound gives me chills..
Awesome cars. Amazing location too!
Evo = Racetrack. WRX =Street racing.
Prins van Oranje what? you can do both with the evo and putting a crossover on the race track would Kinda be retarded wouldnt it?
Yeah, what I meant was that the Subie is a bit more comfy and the Evo will preform better on a track.
for around 15k pounds I'd get an rs4 or e60 m5
mehmet 1923 youre pretty dumb arent you?
mehmet 1923 A fucked up E60 for 15k sure...
Good luck to
-repair it
-insure it
- park it (#kidsLikeToBreakCars)
- and you will cry
Buy a Twingo
CeSayrise You forgot the gas and the work shop costs that will screw you over because if you only have 15k for example for an E60!, how do you want to keep up with the maintences costs, and if something get broken then I will wish you much luck!
there is no way you could get a e60 m5 with that kind of money, everything about it would be expensive to maintain and you probably a get a regular 5 Series for maybe that kind of money
From 5:04 to 5:09, that was a great angle ! Very immersive !!
as a Forester owner, it's definitely a sleeper. It's always fun leaving people who think it's just an autotragic heap.
Car throttle evo wagon vs stagea pls
The worst part of EVO is sound, I mean, there is no sound signature whatsoever. You can tell Subaru is going somewhere even if you can't see it (no other car in the world sound like proper Subaru), same goes to BMW V10, Viper, Mazda Rotor, Toyota 2jz, Honda DOHC VTEC, but Evo... Totally meh sound, uninspiring and not memorable at all. Otherwise great car but gotta love that STI.
Martynas did you heard of mods, I assume you didnt.
I’m mega late but whacking on a straight catless, muffler deleted exhaust onto a dull sounding engine 4 banger just makes it a loud, dull 4 banger
I'm looking for a manual is300 right now. It will be so much fun to drive once i get one.
A very tasty turning circle....love it. My gtr borrows it's turning circle off a school bus.
evo
What about the legacy?
Shawn Burnham yep - especially JDM Legacy STi (which is by the way more rare, more cool and more affordable than Evo Wagon)
Awesome video man
this was a really good vid! good thoughts!
What there was an Evo Wagon.. Shit I never knew
2500 worldwide
Nissan Stagia??
ZeGenesis stagea
extremely expensive and almost impossible to find...
warowner9 ...they're like 10k
I was only thinking about the r34 cause i dont like the look of the older ones... In that case you are right but still a very rare car
over here in aus they cost from 5.5k dollars up
Hi there, you just earned a suscriber (mostly for your vids: line vs V6, AWD vs 4XD) etc, I love this stuff.
a boxer engine in the Subaru? Like BMW's motorcycle boxer engines with pistons back to back? this exists in a car?
Had no idea ^^ Tbh I didn't know such engine existed, discovered it recently with BMW boxers in bikes.
for me the forester it's perfect because I'm at high school and I work with my dad, and I would love to give it a track day some time it seems to be pretty fun !!!
you have to try the Mitsubishi Galant VR6
why the forestor over wrx wagon?
i don't get it either
because the wrx would win no doubt
Apart Media I'm about to go crazy from what you just said
More interior space, less of a cop magnet, similar or more power.
wow, a sunny day in the island...
Thx 4 awesome vid. Still waiting 4 the drifting vs powersliding one though.
That's coming next week, promise!
Alex Kersten Thx. Looking forward 2 it.
👍 for Alex
👍 for Ethan
Well it's nice, but it isn't SuperGramps
I have a Forester XT with some STI bits added :-) Thumbs up.
In the US we have the Outback XT and Legacy GT Wagon. Both very fast wagons. I own a manual Outback XT myself.
the subaru, its fucking awful
ADAM WOOD how come
hes a mitsushitty fan boi
haha, not at all. i dislike the aesthetics of both, but the subaru is just gopping, just truly ugly. i mean, the back of the mitsubishi isnt inspiring, but at least the front is ok. but the subaru, really? they probably ran out of R&D money and thought "that'll do" the body just looks like "that'll do"
Subaru does not hire car designers and pass on the savings to their customers , I always tell people to drive one for atleast a week and you'll be hooked .
They don't hire designers? Yeah I can believe that, it explains a lot..
Oh, cool. there is a Evo behind me. i let him pass me.
oh shit that's a wagon! WTF :(
the forester is pretty nice and that sound i like it so much
You should also look at the JDM Subaru Legacy wagon. The BP5 chassis with the turbo engine. That is a proper sleeper.
Looks like we got a real car guy here... Doesn't even know where the ACD button is on the evo he's reviewing? So he just ignores one of its best features... Smh
Top End Seriously. I'd like to see this fat headed moron get 450hp out the forester Sti. I'm sure the head gaskets and rings will love it. What a fool.
They All Fall Evo can make more power stock due to the fmic and bigger stock turbo. If you pass that stock point, the Subaru is a much better platform with better drivetrain.
not even, Subaru engines blow ringland stock if you want to compare a built ej to a built 4g63, I hate to tell ya but the 4g63 will come out on top, its well known through out both communities that if you want a good road car, you get a Subaru, but if you want a race car, you buy an evo
Just because he doesn't know where a button is on a dashboard, doesn't mean he isn't a car guy.
it's staring him right in the face. drivers side, by the door, right of the steering wheel. all the ACD switches are there. SMH
subaru army!!!
Fronty YES
Fronty the evo doesn't look that appealing, the Forster looks bad ass
Will Harris agreed
Ya sure
c:
That cinematography though..damn
I'm 17 and still have my first car which is a 2005 Forester x and I love it. It isn't quick at all but it is smooth and comfy to drive and very reliable. Has over 360000kms on the clock and hasn't missed a beat
Callum Goodall how much did you get yours for?
