I actually like how the seats adjust, it makes my passengers think they're in something special when they have to ask me how to do it =p
it's not that hard if u get out of the car and adjust it LOL, but when ur in the car, and try to reach ur hand back there and turn it, feels like ur gonna twist ur hand off of ur arm.

When I came home after signing the paperwork, I said to my wife, "I can't believe we just bought a Mitsubishi."

She said, "We didn't buy a Mitsubishi, we bought an Evo."

I can't think of anything major that I dislike, even after four years and 81000 miles. I started a thread about nitpicky items and I think most of these complaints belong there. My nitpicky thing was the windshield wiper spray is like a stream and it should be like a mist. When I owned my VW's I couldn't cover the windshield any better if I sprayed it myself with Windex! I hate spraying the windows because the stream only goes in one place. Especially the rear.

1.) Too Heavy (curb weight is very high)
2.) Center of gravity and overall height of car is too tall
3.) Paint is thin, flaky, brittle, and cheap
4.) Interior sucks donkey *****.
5.) Stock Altezza rear lamps look too ricey.
6.) Macpherson front suspension blows.
7.) Transfer case is too weak and no one makes a stronger ring & pinion
8.) Brembo Caliper paint flakes too easily
9.) Tired of being pulled over by the police for my wing
10.) Stock Evo's have horrible front to rear weight distribution (60/40).

1) cheap *** looking interior...looks like a lancer

--the next 3 come from Justindc2--
2. shifting could be crisper. like s2ks gearbox.
+1 but this is probably impossible. lol

3. that ugly circle thing surrounding the shift boot. reminds me of the 3g eclipse or pontiac styling for some reason.
+1

4. that ugly circle thing on the momo steering wheel. it kills it.
+1

5) no cruise control (dont need it but it would be nice...and stis have it)

6) no shift light...stis have it =(

7) no diff control (MRs only have it)

8) cops

9) mysterious rattling somewhere in the dash

10) car is too tall...would've been nice to lower the overall height...chop a few inches from the cabin. if guys are too tall then they can get different seat sliders, which will lower the seat =P

but i love my car...
those are just some things i dont like about it

I think the shift light on the STi is pointless, especially since it's mounted in the cluster. Might as well just use your RPMs. Then again, I never understood a shift light on a street car.

As for the diff. If you mean the ACD, they all come with it. If your thinking AYC, that is only in JDM/UKDM models.
