Post 5 Things I Hate About Evo (haha lame reference, I know)

1. Telescoping steering wheel - I'm too damn tall, and it's my legs mostly, so I would just fit better if I could move the wheel forward a bit so my knees wouldnt be where they are. Maybe I should just shorten my legs

2. Fat *** seats - Seriously, When I AutoX I do slide around a bit, I wonder If I could get some JDM seats, I don't need harnesses

3. 2003's have no Front Limited Slip - I autocross a lot so I find it kinda lame my 03 doesn't have a front limited slip. I wish the car just bit in and gripped a bit more on initial turn in on tight corners. To be honest I could care less about the ACD but man do I want a Front Limited Slip ...sigh...

4. Seat color - Ok now my picks are getting lame haha, the blue is kinda fugly tho

5. Car Hotness - I always worry about someone trying to steal it or something, I just seems like someone would want to steal it more than other cars.

1. No SAYC (I would sacrifice gas tank size for it)
2. No auto-climate
3. Tacky USDM front and rear lights
4. Full cloth interior would be nice (Blue inserts are kind of rough)
5. All of those Evo9 standards and options are nicer heheh

1) Front diff - i don't have it (mine's 03)
2) sunroof (mine does - but i'd rather have alum. roof)
3) rear wiper (i know I don't need it....)
4) full spare (what can I say...I just like to have a full sized spare...with enkei rims)
5) mitsu - it's the only thing i really don;t like about my Evo

big splitter on front bumper w/really big
advans on any day but a sunny one

1. Worst turning radius ever (unless you're e-braking around a hairpin )...
2. Seat adjustment knob location is almost impossible to use while seated.
3. Pricey to maintain, but that's a given with the performance you get in return.
4. Cruise control would be nice as an option
5. Every other "complaint" is easily fixed if you want (antenna, gauges, tails, HP, etc...)

Other than that, for me it's the perfect car. It fits me like a glove and drives like an extension of my body. Oh... since we're on the subject, a factory Navigation system would be cool...

1. Recline function on seats is GARBAGE
2. PAINT is sub-par(barely any clearcoat and chips easily)
3. Interior is cheap(plastic-noisy)
4. Turning radius is HORRIBLE
5. no cruise control
