2010 EvoX MR Touring Edition now on Mitsu's site

http://jbrlsr.com/?aid=5336118840&bi...%3Floc%3Den-us


I love it. I want it. Heated seats and mirrors. Power sunroof. Rear lip spoiler. Full leather. Why oh why isn't there a 5- or 6-speed option. I just dunno if I can give up manual shifting 100% of the time. SST is fun, but expensive to fix and I just know I would miss full manual shifting eventually.

Still, so sexy.

Re: 2010 EvoX MR Touring Edition now on Mitsu's site

i just looked at the comparison of all 3 trim levels, the mr touring dosent come with anything special over the gsr other than some interior stuff. and anything good you can get in a package.

i would take the gsr at 34, rather than the mr touring at 41 any day

Re: 2010 EvoX MR Touring Edition now on Mitsu's site

I guess it depends on what you plan to do with it. If someone wanted a sweet daily driver that they'd keep stock (with a full warranty) then it would be totally rational in my opinion. Lease the fuc*er!

I've started to think that compromising between performance & daily driver really sucks. I'd like to have a GSR that could be a bit uncompromising for track weekends and an MR as a daily driver that I would never touch as far as aftermarket parts goes.

Re: 2010 EvoX MR Touring Edition now on Mitsu's site

Wow, I optioned it up and it came to $49k. That's just ludicrous, good luck selling them at that price. For reference, the STi is right up there as well, I just looked at one at BP Subie with a sticker of $39k.

For an extra $5k over the Mitsu, you could have this. http://www.bmwusa.com/Standard/Conte...n/Default.aspx

Looks good, but the price is reaching.

A friend of mine bought an '08 STI with BBS and Navi options(I think the only major options available) and paid 36k when they first came out. At this price point, you'll probably be 10k less then an equal MR.

Maybe I'll find one used in a year or so...$44k is too much.

I'd def take this over the M3...way more mod-able and AWD for MN winters!

I don't see how anyone could like that transmission. After driving it for 10 minutes I was already finding the faults people on EvoM complain about to be very intrusive to my driving. Its fine for WOT, for all the light-load and part-throttle cruising it spent way to much time hunting for gears and just felt very confused.
