    The GSRs came before the EVOs. And I'd go for the GSR myself, they're awesome sleepers.

    We didn't get Evolutions until 2003. So the earliest is the Evo. VIII.
    I'm dropping out to create a company that starts with motorcycles, then cars, and forty years later signs a legendary Brazilian driver who has a public and expensive feud with his French teammate.

    Save your self the rolaids and go the quiggs route by buying a GTI. They can be had for pennies and seem reliable.

    If you would have driven an A4 Quattro, I'm sure your experience would have been better.

    And early TipTronic equipped VAG products had some issues.

    I think that the main problem with modern Audis is the steering feel.

    There just isn't any.
    Lack of charisma can be fatal.

    Zytek Fan, good luck with the car search.

    By the way, what is the difference between a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution RS and a GSR. I believe the GSR model has better car features than the RS model.
