its not that extreme... the dealership around me has them for $21.5k so its possible... with that being said the price between the base and the recaro package grew substantially... the recaro package RAs are going for $26,xxx still. haha they rape you on that.

Odd, my posts in this thread seem to have disappeared?!?!

Did you get your mud flaps from the dealer? I have noticed the front wheels really spray the side of the car.
Yes, but you have to be careful when ordering the front mud guards. I went to the dealer and they ordered mine with the first part number in the book. It turned out to be the wrong set. You need to get the ones WITH front airdams. I got the new ones in yesterday, they fit like a glove!

Congrats on the purchase. From what I've read these new Ralliarts make pretty good daily drivers. The SST is fantastic!

Yes, exactly like an Evo... other than the wide body, stiffer chassis, completely reworked suspension with all aluminum bits. Oh and a little thing called Super Active Yaw Control.

Ralliarts are good cars but you are kidding yourself if you think it is in the same league as an Evo X.

whoa, big shot. yes, it was figurative or possibly probably referencing the fact that those parts got a faster 1/4 mile time than a stock X.

Sorry, didn't mean to come off like that.

Just had some bad memories of 335i guys thinking they can chip their cars and suddenly become better than M3s.
