It's a fat pig, but it does look better than the Evo 9.

I've purchaed 2 VIII's new, a 2003 GSR and a 2005 RS. The RS turned into a track car and was modified to the point that it wasn't comfortable as a daily driver, butis sure was fun.

I need to buy a daily driver and will probably buy a X. I want the manual gearbox so I will go for the GSR. I may wait a year since it doesn't seem the Phantom Black is available in the GSR for year 1 or I might go for white depending on how it looks. I will want the upgraded stereo so I gues the SSS package will be necessary.

I'm not thrilled about the 3500lbs.

Are you crazy the IX is gorgeous. The X has a weird back end, it looks like a face, the tail lights are positioned to high up it makes the trunk look huge. The front end is niceb But overall its to plain jane, I love the looks of the IX and VIII, there very defined and pronounced. Just my opinion. Not to mention no maual option available (with a clutch and shifter) major weak sauce.

would never trade my 8 . But I may buy X as a daily driver, in a year or 2. Unless I will have enough $ for GTR than its another story lolz
