About to purchase a Carista but not sure if I should opt for the OBD or the EVO version? Has anyone tried the sVO version and is it worth the extra cost?

Only difference is that the EVO supports a wider variety of vehicles if you want to use it on other things. They do the exact same things.

Thanks, I read the EVO might be faster. Also, packaging the EVO and a 12month subscriptions runs at $67. Seems like a good deal?

Not sure how they're doing the service anymore, but I just paid for a month, made the changes I wanted, and then cancelled the service. You don't need a year's worth if you don't want/need it.

I have the EVO. If the original is slower, that would be painful. I already feel like it takes more time than it should to initially pair and to run checks. That said I've used it on the truck and one other vehicle and appreciate not having the hassle of coordinating with the dealership to such basic things.
Looks like they are running half off right now if you go direct from their website.
