Well, I'm sold
I have the steering wheel set as low as it goes, i'm 6'
I couldn't really see my speed over 25, and had to tilt my head right to check my speed every time 5-0 . got reall old
I installed the Defi VSD, so the speed and whatever else is shown in the windshield http://www.defi-shop.com/product/con...ncept_top.html
Now the only thing the wheel blocks is the high beam indicator.
the other thing I don't like about this car, (I was gonna get a firebird)
everyone out around here knows they're gonna lose an they don't even try

Winner...that's what makes it cool in my opinion, the spartan approach on a performance car. Plus, I never liked the blue STi interior; however, I did like the black interior of the WRX.
Anyways, I LOVE my VIII leather seats

The morning I went to buy my MR I just had to make one last stop at the subbie dealership and see what all the fuss was about. After the guy let me out for the test drive, it was obvious which was a better car for my needs. The sales person at mitsubishi knew somehow that "I'd be back". I told him not to be so sure...but only a few days later....I was back and with a smile on my face...he was right.

I took a Evo 9 SE (non-mr) out for a test drive today and all i can say is holy ****! i'm pretty much sold on evos. i liked my subbies but the interior room in the evo is un beatable. the only gripe i have is the shifter was a little "different". it felt like a SRT-4 i drove in once. and i didn't have much time to adjust the seat to get comfortable. but anyways, does anyone have any interior reviews i could read up on?

Interior, overall, is a little better than the STI, imo. Gauges, though, are much better in the Subie. I like the IX seats and overall look better, though.
As far as comfort, seems to be about a wash, to me.
What sold me on the IX was the test drive (drove an STI same day - no comparison - EVO won hands down).
