Not trying to be a smartass. Run a search, there are a couple of relly good threads on this. Do a search on "RS"

There's no radio or speakers in the RS. Less sound deadening stuff. No power windows. Mirrors and door handles aren't color matched and no CF wing. The RS also has the unique "trunk bar".

Diffs, 4g63t, tranny all the same.

No power options or radio? Damn. I guess I will not go for an RS.

Thanks

I dont think it lacks any thing from the Evo 8 performance wise, but it just doesnt have all the extras the Evo 8 has thats all and I'm sure you already know that.

The RS the best Purchase for the money. If you don't mind rolling up the windows. But is fast than the GSR and MR and ighter in weight. It's already prewired for a stereo and AC is standard. If your thinking of getting an Evo the RS is the best choice in my opinon.
