I would get the ix rs in a heartbeat over the x

but that's just my opinion

if the car is in good shape and not beat on you can't go wrong assuming the price is decent

it depends on if you like the IX better than the X. I would personally get the IX because i dont like the looks of the X. either choice would be good. good luck with your decision

If the manual windows and locks and all that don't bother you, definitely go for it!

The IX surpasses the X in every aspect (IMO)

Try and get it, but talk them down on the price...if they want to sell it they will lower the price...trust me..good luck.. The X IMHO sucks and is ugly as SH*T...

I am not a big fan of the X as replacement for the IX but yaw control, bigger better brakes, and um, um, well at least those two things are better. Oh, and my wife likes the X more, go figure. She wants a MR with the slush box. I guess there could be a different buyer at the evo shop in the future, LOL.
