why put forth the effort of working on an opposed motor they are difficult to install anything on ... **** to install cam gears you have to pull the motor... i definitly choose the supra. if for some reason i could never own a fd again the only other car i would own would be a tt supra.

Performance? In what ways?
I don't see the STI as an all out sports car, or at least when it comes to the classic idea of one.
I got burned for saying this on SF (for some reason) but I just don't see the STI/EVO as being a sports car. Sure, its a "Sport" to rally, so to say, and its in a car, but its just not a "Sports car" as we've come to know (small, 2 doors usually, rwd, powerful, different, rare..).
So, what my point is, is does your cousin want a sports car? The STI has a sedan look, as "Good" as it is (I love it over the EVO and its ugliness), it's still doesn't please the senses as much as the Supra does.
AWD? Sweet! Great for launching and snow and perhaps handling! But RWD is funner IMO, and AWD is something I'd want on a car I'm driving in the winter time to be safer and that's that.
My vote is the Supra, as "beat up" as some come, there are good ones left! The weight (and price haha) keeps me from them, but you can NOT deny their reliability, and power.
