Side by side the Rupture just completely beats the crap out of the Stabber (comparing attribute stats). So my question is: Why is the Stabber 33mil while the Rupture is only like 6mil? Comparing each of their stats the Rupture wins in every category. So why is this?

Stabber is cheaper to produce then a rupture. So most likely that the stabbers for reasonable prices are just sold out.
Btw you can check price history on items in the market, so you know if you are paying an exhorbitant price for it or not.

33 mil is a bit much for a stabber, but my guess? It's t2 variant is going well atm, so buying those to build the t2 variant. AND, the speed of a stabber. A rupture is nice. But a stabber will beat it in PvP because of the speed the stabber can have, and speedtank about everything.

I'm new to EVE so excuse my lack of EVE intelligence.. but how exactly is a Stabber faster? My rupture can go 240 or 245 (can't remember exactly) and the Stabber goes like 235. Also, how does speed make you better at pvp when the Rupture can take more damage?

On a high skilled character the stabber is mucho faster then the rupture (specially when using an AB or MWD since they have less mass). Also for PvP in .0 it's very important that you can engage who you want and not the other way around. Faster ships mean you can disengage en run properly and outrunning for example turret tracking and missles.
For a starting player the rupture is better for PvP on all fronts though (well it only has 3 meds so it isn't perfect but hey you can't have it all).

Wow.. I must be going blind. I swear I read that the Rupture goes like 240 in-game. Guess I was wrong about the speed.

Stabber speed>Rupture but if that stabber gets webbed it's no match. rupture will tear it to shreads. Personally I prefer a rupture to a stabber.

No you weren't wrong. The navigation skill gives +5% speed per level. So with navigation 4 a rupture would go 200*1.2=240 m/s.
What you did do wrong was comparing a rupture with skill adjustment versus a stabber without skill adjustment.
A stabber with minmatar cruiser 4 and navigation 4 has a speed of 235*1.2*1.2=338 m/s (the reason it has a second 1.2 modifier is because of the stabber ship bonus of 5% velocity per level of minmatar cruiser).
But still I would suggest taking the rupture to start with, the stabber has its uses but the rupture is far more usefull overall.

Current prices for stabbers in Jita is 4.2m-4.6m, there are 120 stabbers for sale below 5m and 1 single stabber for 33m. I think you need to learn to read the market window a bit better. ---------------------------------------- A Guide to Scan Probing in Revelations |

I prefer the rupture as it is still an excellent PVP ship which is versatile enough to do just about everything in the game.
I wouldnt even try to PVP with a stabber though as 9 times out of 10 there is a very experienced pilot at the controls. Stabber pilots (there arent alot of them) are just mean. _______________________________________________ RuntimeError: ChainEvent is blocking by design, but you're block trapped.

The Rupture is a good armor tank, but slower. You want to grab and hold with it. The Stabber is a corvette, swift and nible. You want to dance around your opponent and pummel them with machine gun fire. 8-)
