My mate had a 03 WRX with ~700hp (got stolen 2 months, never seen again) and that was used as a daily driver. Cosworth built engine that needed major overhaul every 10,000kms.
So it can be reliable but its gonna cost you alot to do that.

EXACTLY
and this is the BASE evo. BASE evo. BASE. as in standard, no options, starting point for evos like the FQ 400. thus, the price will be kept down. hence the power will be kept down. this is due to keeping the car reliable at a certain price point. i KNOW there are 600, 700 hp evos running around, but they have either had ridiculous amounts of money poured into them or theyre very unreliable. sure, the block is indestructable, but what about everything else? and i am perfectly sure, for the price point, you will not be able to find anything faster.
