IX's are lighter? they depreciate less? faster with light mods?

There's not doubt the IX is superior than the VIII in many aspects, but this is not the case with the ones that you mentioned.

My 05 VIII has a little button on my dashborad with the words "ACD" engraved in it.

And yes, IXs are "plain faster" at about .1 sec
