That is an interesting trade, I mean to go from a near luxury car like the Acura TL, to the very raw (but awesome) EVO RS is an interesting choice. You must have other cars?

I could see going from RSX to GSR or MR, but TL to RS?
Why did you choose the RS? Is it only for track use?

funny, the TL was the only other car that i was considering alongside the evo after testing the g-35 coupe, the TL, the STi, and the IS300. almost bought the TL, but had already comitted to the evo, had a killer deal on TL( 29k new), and to be honest, if it would have been a week sooner i would have bought it. happy w/ evo though, nothing else drives like it and the online community is the best so far!

Yeah, its completely different car from the TL. I miss the buttons sometimes, but then I just hit the throttle and boost up.

I had a lightly modded 97 Eclipse GSX for 5 years before the TL. The TL was very nice but I missed the turbo and awd.

I chose the RS because I could get a good deal on it (not too many people in the market for the RS, was sitting on the dealer's lot for a while.)
I also really didn't like the wing, those thing must cost a fortune in tickets.
