But the EVO 9 is just around the corner and the hope it finally comes with the ACD with AYC . That will be the Utilmate Evo.But the fact remains that the MR is the best car for the money but are you willing to take a huge loss and get a MR then get rid of the MR for possibly a EVO 9 with all the real trimmings.
Batty can't help but **** in everyone's corn flakes. The next Evo will always be better than the last, and stop worrying so much about other peoples money.
My New Baby arrived!!!!!!!!! First impressions.large pics
Just got it today from Snorre at San Rafael Mitsubishi ! Very Happy with his service, extremely professional!!!!!!!!!Snorre already delivered 2 MR's before mines today, and another 3 RS's within the last 2 days. Supposedly all 3 of the RS's are going to be converted into full race cars.
Got to meet one of the other MR owners, so cool!
Initial impression:
MR is very smooth and quiet, with extremely smooth shifter , much better than the regular evo. Since i am still breaking in the MR, no redlining yet, got up to 4k max! hummm, seems to be much torquer than i remembered than on stock evo.
Again, that obnoxious smell around and inside the car, making us kinda nauseous. Wished it would go away quickly.
Color is just what i wanted, totally mean looking, yet stealthish , YEAH!
That suspension, Bilstein system on the MR , really does it job, reminds me of Jbigolow's Zeals quite a bit, it just might be the ticket for those who wants factory parts instead of aftermarket coilovers.
It's much more refined than what we can remembered and my wife likes it a lot!! Shocked
More to follow.
