1. Spare thru-hole in the firewall is on the passenger side.
2. Gas tank design requires extra suction tube for the fuel pump.
3. Exhaust does not go straight back.
4. Carbon Fiber wing design slightly blocks rear view.
5. Rear windows roll only mostly all of the way down, not completely like the fronts.

I agree the car is fine....maybe the T-case can be better and possibly the transmission......I would also prefer some gadgets like in the Skyline GTR....and possibly a coil over set up that can be adjusted....and maybe some finishing touches here and there. My first impression of my Evo is that it had some awesome parts(engine, brakes, even suspension), and then some cheapo parts(T-case, shifter, interior). I guess a bit more balance wouldn't hurt.

1. No crusie control
2. Crappy and limited choice of paint colors in all models (secifically refering to MR)
3. Crappy looking altezza rear tail light (I much prefer the standard or MR tails)
4. Crappy guage illumination
5. Car is too tall!!! the car roof could be atleast 2 inches lower
6. Not tight enough curb to curb turning radius ...
7. Small gas tank

Its like that on all cars. I guess its some sort of child safety feature so they dont toss themselves out the window

makes weird noises at low low speeds when im turning sharp, like the suspension clunks real bad or somthin. no cruise, interrior gets old fast so im always adding **** to make it nicer. my car has its days, one day its fast as **** next day its slow as ****. even with same air temps outside for instance today it was slow as **** compared to yesterday... umm what else, its losing its tight feeling as a chassis like i need new motor mounts or somthin, i cant explain really what im sayin it just doesnt feel solid like it did when it was new, my s2000 has 30k on it and it stilll feels like driving a brick, it feels solid. i dont know u guys prolly get what i meen.

In no special order:

1) Stock tail lights
2) Instrument cluster is hard to read
3) Position of the oil filter
4) Temp control binds
5) Two billion plastic rivets on the under tray

It isn't that I don't like the Evo, I just think there is room for improvements in these areas.
